GTM - What would you monitor?
Hey!
This is a very general questions, so please keep an open mind.
If you had a wish list of things to monitor in the GTM, what would those be? I am trying to compile a list in order to conduct monitoring of this module and would appreciate some brain storming.
It could be anything related to the GTM, like log entries indicating a problem, or plain misconfigurations, or just data center status.
Fire away, anything is appreciated!

Good day, Perhaps some scripting logic around expected DNS responses and network connectivity to the GTM itself would be a good place to start.
query @gtm_listener domain_name if query != 10.10.10.1 connect == telnet gtm_host if connect != fail email "DNS resolution failure" else email "DNS resolution and connectivity to GTM are failing"Once you understand some of the GTM logging errors, you could build email alerts around those using:
K3667: Configuring alerts to send email notifications https://support.f5.com/csp//article/K3667Hopefully, there's something here to at least get the thought process started.

Thanks Kevin, that's a good start. :)

Similar to Kevin, when we did a GTM migration we would monitor wide ip resolutions on the GTM by enabling a specific db variable, see as the GTM doesn't log this by default.
Hope this also helps,
