For more information, see Cisco Catalyst Center in the product documentation.

In a future release, LogicMonitor Collectors will no longer support Apache Groovy 2. All official LogicMonitor-provided modules will be compatible with Apache Groovy 4. To support this migration, LogicMonitor will be releasing updates to official LogicModules to be compatible with Groovy 4.

As a result of this migration, you must do the following:

• Validate any customized or community-provided modules to ensure compatibility
  For more information about validating your customized modules, see Custom Module Groovy Migration Validation in the product documentation.
• Install a module update for LogicMonitor-provided modules that have compatibility changes released.
  For more information, see LogicMonitor Provided Modules Groovy 4 Migration in the product documentation.
• Update Enhanced Script NetScans to Groovy 4 compatible scripts.
  For more information, see Enhanced Script NetScans Now Groovy 4 Compatible in the Modules section of the Release Notes.

For more information on the timeline of this migration, see Apache Groovy 2 End-of-Life Milestone Public Announcement].

The LogicMonitor EA Collector 34.500 or later is compatible with Groovy 2 and Groovy 4. For more information about the EA Collector release, see the EA Collector 34.500 Release Notes.

When running a module using Apache Groovy 4, and using the groovy.json.JsonSlurper(), the following exception was with the LogicMonitor Collector version 36.200 or later.

exception:groovy.lang.RunTimeException: Unable to load FastStringService

When running a module using Apache Groovy 4, and the module includes an invalid type parameter for a data structure, the module throws the following exception:

 java.lang.RuntimeException: org.codehaus.groovy.control.MultipleCompilationErrorsException: startup failed:

When running a module using Apache Groovy 4, the following exception can be thrown when using the GroovyScriptHelper to incorporate LogicMonitor snippets in your script:

exception:groovy.lang.MissingPropertyException: No such property

To mitigate this issue, adjust the way the class is imported, similar to the following:

import com.santaba.agent.groovy.utils.GroovyScriptHelper 
import com.logicmonitor.mod.Snippets 
def modLoader = GroovyScriptHelper.getInstance(GroovySystem.version).getScript("Snippets", Snippets.getLoader()).withBinding(getBinding())

When running a module using Apache Groovy 4 with legacy classes in your script, the following exception can be thrown:

java.lang.RuntimeException: org.codehaus.groovy.control.MultipleCompilationErrorsException: startup failed 

To mitigate this issue, migrate to JPMS-compliant package names. Making this change does not break backward compatibility with Groovy 2.

For example, the following script uses legacy classes:

import groovy.util.XmlSlurper
import groovy.util.XmlParser
def xmlSlurper = new XmlSlurper()
def xmlParser = new XmlParser()

You can replace the legacy classes with JPMS-compliant package names in Groovy 4 to resolve the exception, similar to the following:

import groovy.xml.XmlSlurper
import groovy.xml.XmlParser
def xmlSlurper = new XmlSlurper() 
def xmlParser = new XmlParser() 

When running a module using Apache Groovy 4, and using java.util.Date.format(), the following exception was resolved with the LogicMonitor Collector version 35.400 or later.

import groovy.xml.XmlSlurper
import groovy.xml.XmlParser
def xmlSlurper = new XmlSlurper() 
def xmlParser = new XmlParser() 

In Apache Groovy 4, the behavior of the push() method for the List class is reversed. In Apache Groovy 2.4, the push() method would add an item to the list, in Apache Groovy 4 push() will work on the first item of a List.

// v4 Behavior
def numbers = [1, 2, 3, 4]
numbers.push(5)
println numbers 
// OUTPUT: [5, 1, 2, 3, 4] 
 
// v2.4 Behavior
def numbers = [1, 2, 3, 4]
numbers.push(5)
println numbers 
// OUTPUT: [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]

To mitigate this issue, migrate to using add() in place of push():

def numbers = [1, 2, 3, 4]
numbers.add("5")
println numbers 
// OUTPUT: [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]

When running a module using Apache Groovy 4, the behavior of the pop() method is reversed. In Apache Groovy 2.4 the pop() behavior would remove the last item in a list, in Groovy 4 pop() will remove the first item in a list.

// v4 Behavior
def numbers = [1, 2, 3, 4]
println numbers.pop() 
// OUTPUT: 1
 
// v2.4 Behavior
def numbers = [1, 2, 3, 4]
println numbers.pop() 
// OUTPUT: 4 

To mitigate this issue, migrate to using remove() in place of pop():

def numbers = [1, 2, 3, 4]
println numbers.remove(numbers.size() - 1) 
// OUTPUT: 4 

As LogicMonitor continues to phase out the legacy UI, the New UI Preview switch will be removed for the NetScan Settings, making the settings unavailable using the legacy UI, and available in the new UI only.

LogicMonitor has enhanced the Normalized Properties functionality to support grouping and filtering of all device types, including the cloud resources. Key benefits of this enhancement are as follows: * You can now consolidate resources from multiple cloud providers (such as AWS, Azure, and GCP) and devices into a single property alias, thus simplifying alert grouping and resource monitoring across all environments.

• You can now filter and group devices by normalized properties in the Resource Explorer, Dashboards, and Topology maps.
• You can add a maximum of 15 normalized properties, where the order of the properties determines their priority.
• This has streamlined monitoring across a broader range of resources and devices in LogicMonitor.

For more information, see Portal Settings in the product documentation.

You can now refine your search results when searching for content within the LogicMonitor website, enabling you to filter your search results based on the type of content you want (for example, “Product Documentation”, “Release Notes”, and so on). This faceted search capability displays for search results in the Product Documentation and for the LogicMonitor website.

To access the filtered search capabilities, navigate to the Product Documentation landing page or the LogicMonitor website, and enter your search prompt. The filtering options display on your search engine results page.

As a result of the Firebase Dynamic Links (FDL) deprecation, LogicMonitor is continuing to provide support for dynamic links for a generated report if you have disabled shared reporting in your LogicMonitor portal. If you have enabled shared reporting, LogicMonitor now displays the link as a text-wrapped link in the report history to allow for a condensed view of the link. You can expand the link as needed.

To access this link, navigate to Reports, select the report you want to view, and then select the History tab. The list of generated reports displays in a table format.

For more information about shared reporting, see Shared Report Access in the product documentation.

In addition, this enhancement resolves the intermittent error of “Dynamic Link Not Found” when generating an ad-hoc report.
