Navigating the Service Insights Page

Last updated on 27 March, 2023

You manage all your monitored services from the Services page. The Services page consists of the navigation panel on the left and the detail panel on the right.

Note: For information on how to add services to your account, see Adding a Service.

Navigation Panel

The navigation panel has the following tabs:

  • The Services tab — Displays services and service groups. 
  • The Favorites tab — Provides quick access to items you have set as favorites.

Services Tab

Use the services tab to search, navigate, and identify relationships between the services in your LogicMonitor account.

  1. Search Tree to search for services by keyword.
  2. Filter services based on alert status, collector status, or scheduled down time status.
  3. Sort resources by Alphabetical A-Z, Alphabetical Z-A, or By Alert Severity.

The following table shows the common navigation tools available in the Services Tree.

Element/ActionDescription
Navigation arrowsExpands or contracts the resource in the Services Tree.
Using the right and down-facing arrows, you can open and close elements (groups, services, or multi-instance DataSources) to view its contents.

Note: Clicking a navigation arrow does not change the view in the detail panel.
Services icon/nameSelecting the service icon or name opens the service in the detail panel.
ResizeThe right border of the Services Tree can be adjusted (drag) to widen or narrow the view. Widths between 300 and 1000 pixels are supported.
Show or HideThe Services Tree is displayed by default. You can use the Hide Panel arrow to temporarily hide the Services Tree.
FocusThe focus icon appears when you hover over any service group, service, or instance. When you select it, the Services Tree focuses on the selected instance only. 

Select the focus again to reset the Services Tree to the root level.
Also, when you hover over a Service group, a tooltip appears mentioning the number of resources available inside that service group.
BreadcrumbsBreadcrumbs are provided at the top of the LogicMonitor window and offer an optional way to navigate your services. The focus of the detail panel updates when you select a breadcrumb.

You can limit your search results by specifying a search category. When you use a search category, only the services for that specified category are searched.

The following search categories are available:

ResourceSearch CategoryDescription
Instancei:Search Instance names for a keyword match.
Groupg:Search group names for a keyword match.
Deviced:Search services and cloud resource names for a keyword match.
DataSourceds:Search DataSource names for a keyword match.

Note:

  • If you specify two or more keywords for the same category, the criteria is logically interpreted as an OR. For example, g:DEV g:AWS returns device groups containing DEV or AWS in their names. If you specify two or more keywords for different categories, the criteria is logically interpreted as an AND. For example, g:AWS ds:EBS returns DataSources that contain EBS in their names and are members of groups that contain AWS in their names.
  • To search using the search category, do not enter any space between the colon and the search keyword. If a space is entered, the search displays results for all the categories for the keyword you are searching.

The following filters are available on the Services tab:

IconDescription
Critical
Error
Warning
Disabled Alert
Dead Resources
Dead Collectors
SDT Status

Note: Filters are applied to the active view (focus) of the services tree. For example, if the services tree is currently focused on a group, only services from that group are displayed.

An icon is displayed next to each resource to help identify the service type (device, cloud resource, group, instance, or module). Hover over any icon in the services tree to display its description.
