[Feature Request] Add support for "inputs.win_services" #120

Open TheSwede86 opened 3 years ago

TheSwede86 commented 3 years ago

Hello,

Telegraf supports monitoring the status (running, stopped etc.) of windows services through their "inputs.win_services"-plugin: https://github.com/influxdata/telegraf/tree/release-1.16/plugins/inputs/win_services Since CWA is based on Telegraf I wonder if this can be supported by CWA as well?

It would be really helpful to send the status of windows services as metrics to CW using CWA to further integrate against various AWS-services. This can of course be accomplished by sending custom metrics to CW by scripting it but would be great to have it natively in CWA especially since it already seems to be supported by Telegraf.

Any idea if this is on the roadmap and if so if there is an ETA on it?

Best Regards

Hi, thank you for your feedback, we will discuss this feature on our roadmap and get back to you on possible ETA.

@haojhcwa Thank you so much for your reply.

Just wondering if you might have any update? Appreciate the work you guys put in, just wanted to have a rough estimate on when a meeting where this might possibly be discussed would happen so I know that after that time I might receive an update.

Stay safe!

@tcvall86 sorry for the delayed response, it is currently still in our backlogs, I've brought attention to the team, and I'll update here for any progress.

Any update on this? Would be a really useful feature to have to be able to set alarms when services aren't running.
