I'm attempting to setup a standardized method of discovering and monitoring installed applications.
Can you create item prototypes that is not based on the macro returned by the discovery rule?
I would like to have a generic discovery rule that would return a list of services on the host, filter using regex for a specific type, and then create items to monitor other aspects of that application.
For instance, the discovery rule would return a list of services, filtering for instances matching "MSSQL" and have a item prototype instantiated to check if port 1433 is open.
The logic I want to implement is this;
IF there's is a service MSSQL THEN monitor port 1433.
The idea is to use a single discovery script to discover and monitor multiple different systems.
