Abstract
In some examples, a controller dynamically configures a property associated with monitoring performed by an agent. The controller stores, in a repository, metadata relating to the agent. The controller receives, from the agent, first sensor data that excludes the metadata, and uses indexing information in the first sensor data to retrieve the metadata from the repository.
Claims18
A non-transitory machine-readable storage medium comprising instructions that upon execution cause a controller to:
- receive, at the controller, metadata from an agent associated with a sensor, wherein the metadata comprises an operational characteristic of the sensor;
- determine a monitoring configuration relating to collection of sensor data by the sensor associated with the agent;
- store, in a repository, mapping information correlating different indexing information to different metadata comprising operational characteristics of sensors;
- receive, at the controller, first sensor data from the agent collected according to the monitoring configuration, wherein the first sensor data is included in a first message comprising first indexing information and excluding the metadata comprising the operational characteristic of the sensor;
- use the first indexing information in the data message to retrieve the metadata comprising the operational characteristic of the sensor from the mapping information;
- update the monitoring configuration;
- receive, at the controller, second sensor data from the agent collected according to the updated monitoring configuration, wherein the second sensor data is included in a second message comprising the first indexing information and excluding the metadata comprising the operational characteristic of the sensor;
- and
- use the first indexing information in the second message to retrieve the metadata comprising the operational characteristic of the sensor from the mapping information.

A system comprising:
- a processor;
- and
- a non-transitory storage medium storing instructions executable on the processor to:
- receive, at the system, metadata from an agent as part of registration performed by the agent, the metadata comprising an operational characteristic of a sensor associated with the agent;
- store, in a repository, mapping information correlating different indexing information to different metadata comprising operational characteristics of sensors;
- determine a monitoring configuration relating to collection of sensor data by the sensor associated with the agent;
- receive, at the system, first sensor data from the agent collected according to the monitoring configuration, wherein the first sensor data is included in a first message comprising first indexing information and excluding the metadata comprising the operational characteristic of the sensor;
- use the first indexing information in the first message to retrieve the metadata comprising the operational characteristic of the sensor from the mapping information;
- update the monitoring configuration;
- receive, at the system, second sensor data from the agent collected according to the updated monitoring configuration, wherein the second sensor data is included in a second message comprising the first indexing information and excluding the metadata comprising the operational characteristic of the sensor;
- and
- use the first indexing information in the second message to retrieve the metadata comprising the operational characteristic of the sensor from the mapping information.
