OCSF integration

Install the infrastructure agent

To use the OCSF integration, you need to also install the infrastructure agent on the same host. The infrastructure agent monitors the host itself, while the integration you'll install in the next step extends your monitoring with OCSF-specific data.

Enable the OCSF integration with nri-flex

1. Create a file named nri-ocsf.yml in the integrations directory:

   bash

   Copiar

   $
   touch /etc/newrelic-infra/integrations.d/nri-ocsf.yml

2. Add the following snippet to your nri-ocsf.yml file to enable the agent to capture OCSF data:

   integrations:
     - name: nri-flex
       config:
         name: ocsfExample
         global:
           base_url: http://ip-address:PORT
           headers:
             accept: application/json
         apis:
           - event_type: ocsfSampleEvent       # use this name to query the data
             url: /customEndpoint               # endpoint with OCSF data
           - event_type: ocsfCustomEvent1      
             url: /customEndpoint2

   Copiar

Restart the New Relic infrastructure agent

Use the instructions in our infrastructure agent docs to restart your infrastructure agent. This is command that should work for most people:

$
sudo systemctl restart newrelic-infra.service
