Using MoM

Lucidum MoM (Manager of Managers) allows you to manage multiple Lucidum systems from a single browser session.

Adding Lucidum Systems to Lucidum MoM #

Before you can monitor your Lucidum systems with MoM, you must first add the systems to MoM. To do this:

1. Log in to the first Lucidum system you want to monitor with MoM.

2. Note the fully-qualified domain name (FQDN) for the Lucidum system. The fully qualified domain name for a Lucidum system is usually <instance name>.lucidum.cloud. You can check the URL to find the FQDN.

3. Create a new user account to be used by MoM.

4. Generate a bearer token for the new user account. Copy and store the token locally. You will need it in step 8.

5. Repeat steps 1-4 for each Lucidum system you want to monitor with MoM.

6. Log in to MoM.

   

7. Click the Add Deployment (plus-sign) icon in the upper right.

   

8. In the Add Deployment modal page, enter the following:

   • Name. User-friendly name for the Lucidum system.

   • FQDN. The full-qualified domain name for the Lucidum system.

   • API Token. The bearer token you generated for the new MoM user.

9. Repeat steps 6-8 for each Lucidum system you want to add to MoM.

MoM displays the following about each Lucidum system:

• Name. The user-friendly name of the Lucidum system.

• FQDN. The FQDN of the Lucidum system.

• Status. Specifies the status of the connection between the Lucidum system and MoM. Choice are:

  • Unable to connect via API. Check the API bearer token. If necessary, re-generate the token and edit the deployment. with the new token.

  • Successful connection. MoM successfully connected to the Lucidum system.

  •   Connection failed. MoM cannot communicate with the Lucidum system. Ensure that the Lucidum system is up and running. Ensure that the FQDN is correct. Ensure that there is network line-of-sight, for example, search for firewall rules that might prevent a connection between the Lucidum system and MoM.

• Asset Count. A line graph that displays the number of assets managed by the Lucidum system for the past week. Mousing over the line graph displays the number of assets under management for a specific day.

• User Count. A line graph that displays the number of users managed by the Lucidum system for the past week. Mousing over the line graph displays the number of user under management for a specific day.
