Home


Overview

NEW in 2.5.8.1 or later.

See the Guide here.   Older releases see below steps.


This process is for dark sites to generate the log parsing output that provides a summary of information to support.  The parsing report can be reviewed for information be for sending to support.  

  1. Step 1 - run the eyeglass log parsing report, review and send as attachment to support case
  2. Step 2 - if requested more detailed steps to verify component health.


How to run the the Log Parser Report

To determine ECA health from log parser output, first run Eyeglass log parser report.

  1. Login to Eyeglass CLI as admin 

  2. See the Guide here 


Steps for more detailed Health Check of components (optional)

Use these steps if support requests additional details after sending the parsing report to support.

Use the Log Parser table of content to browse to sections


  

  1. Check Active Alarm for any ECA related issue

  2. Check Remote Services and ensure the Active section states true



  3. Everything under Health section in RemoteServices - Running Containers should be GREEN and OK. When you open support ticket related to ECA containers in Error state, agents will ask for current container state. Most common ones are turboaudit, fastanalysis, evtarchive, spark-worker etc

Support team may ask you to check Remote Services - Running Containers, remote Services - Validation section for ECA troubleshooting

If any ECA node is not in true state, that node is NOT in healthy state.

  1. Check Remote Services - Validation to determine any time skew and/or issue with HBase-scanning


    In the picture above, hbase:server Validation is in OK state. Time skew is OK.

  2. Check Security Guard for most recent events and provide details. ERROR state indicates an unhealthy ECA environment.

    a. From Table of content click on Security Guard Events

b. Check for most recent events and provide details


c. If they are in ERROR state, support team will ask you to open Eyeglass Web UI and provide log details to support team.

- Eyeglass Web UI → Ransomware Defender widget → Security Guard → Open failed log


  1. Check turboaudit health and event rates by click the Event Rates/Turbo Audit table of content menu Item number 23 Event rates


    NOTE: Sent and receive Rate for nodes 2-6 ECAs (check sent and received independently).
    NOTE: For “Received” MAKE SURE above 0 EVTS all the way to the right side of graph. IF ALL ZERO this is an issue. Flag for case follow up




  2. Check evtarchive container health and event rates by click the Evt Archive Event Rates table of content menu item number 24 "Evt Archive - Event Rates" 


  3. NOTE: MAKE SURE above 0 EVTS all the way to the right side of graph. IF ALL ZERO this is an issue. Flag for case follow up

  4. Check ECA node disk space

    1. You may be asked to check disk space as well as CPU/MEMORY usage for ECA nodes. Select the ECA disk usage TOC to check disk space.



ECA Specific Support data in the Support Report

  1. First check Manage Services in Eyeglass. If you notice a red/yellow warning, open the widget

  2. If containers are showing INACTIVE note down the node # and names of the containers

  3. Login to ECA node # using SSH session [Putty]

  4. First thing to check is Eyeglass version and summary. Support team will ask for:

    1. Eyeglass version,

    2. Total RAM,

    3. OS version etc

  5. If you are running EOL version of Eyeglass, support team will request you to upgrade Eyeglass appliance.

  6. If Eyeglass Replication jobs are in ERROR state, click to expand and then hover over to read the ERROR message


  7. Provide the error msg to Eyeglass support team

  8. Support team will ask for additional information such as Active Alarm. Scroll down the page to locate the alarms. Use menu item #2 for active alarms

ECA Health check for Dark-Sites

When Eyeglass support  team is asking for health check status please perform the following steps and provide output to agents:

  1. Login to Eyeglass Appliance Web UI

  2. Check for error/warning in Manage Services.

  3. If you have received an Eyeglass alarm - collect the information and provide to support

  4. Open Eyeglass Manage Services widget and check containers state

  5. ECA containers provide Web UI access to collect information. You can locate the Web UI link from Manage Services window


Hbase-master Database Health Check

Support team may ask for hbase-master server status. To collect hbase-master statistics,


a) Browse to http://<ECA_NODE1_IP>:16010
b) Take Screenshot:
    

c) Check Hbase tables. Look for Offline/Failed regions take screenshot

   
d) Collect the hbase-master server info and provide to support

Kafka-manager Health Check

Support team may ask for kafka-manager status. To collect kafka-manager statistics,
a) Browse to http://<ECA_NODE1_IP>/kafkahq
b) If kafka-manager is NOT configured, set it up before using it from node 1 of the eca

ecactl containers up -d kafkahq

ecactl containers start kafkahq

Take screen shot and add to the support case


Spark-master Health Check
