Auto update of sensor configuration

A system comprising:

• a processor;
• and
• a computer-readable storage medium storing instructions which, when executed by the processor, cause the system to perform operations comprising:
• analyzing network data pushed from a plurality of collectors in a network to extract collector information and determine, from the collector information, active collectors among the plurality of collectors and that a specific collector among the active collectors is an unavailable collector;
• removing the unavailable collector from the active collectors;
• receiving sensor information from a plurality of sensors of the network;
• determining at least one sensor of the plurality of sensors that corresponds to the unavailable collector from the sensor information received from the plurality of sensors;
• reassigning the at least one sensor to another collector among the active collectors;
• and
• causing the at least one sensor to update configuration based at least upon the collector information related to the another collector and identified from the network data pushed from the plurality of collectors.

A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing instructions for updating sensor configuration in a network that, when executed by at least one processor of a computing system, cause the computing system to perform operations comprising:

• analyzing network data pushed from a plurality of collectors in the network to extract collector information and determine, from the collector information, active collectors among the plurality of collectors and that a specific collector among the active collectors is an unavailable collector;
• removing the unavailable collector from the active collectors;
• receiving sensor information from a plurality of sensors of the network;
• determining at least one sensor of the plurality of sensors that corresponds to the unavailable collector from the sensor information received from the plurality of sensors;
• reassigning the at least one sensor to another collector among the active collectors;
• and
• causing the at least one sensor to update configuration based at least upon the collector information related to the another collector and identified from the network data pushed from the plurality of collectors.
