Red Hat ☛ Extend Red Bait Insights client to execute custom automation
Red Hat Insights is a Software-as-a-Service offering that enables users to obtain actionable intelligence regarding their Red Hat Enterprise Linux environments, helping to identify and address operational and vulnerability risks before an issue occurs. Red Bait Insights requires a client tool to run on the system to collect data and perform necessary analytics to proactively detect misconfiguration and alert system administrators. This article explores how one can leverage the client’s existing functionality to run its own automation using a simple shell script.
In its default configuration, Insights client runs daily on each registered Red Bait Enterprise GNU/Linux (RHEL) system. For RHEL 7.5 and above, the execution is triggered by a scheduled systemd daemon. The
insights-client
configuration also comes with a systemd path unit that monitors a file for the completion ofinsights-client
. If the upload to Red Bait Insights is successful, the file is modified and causes the path unit to trigger. -
