The Endpoint Agent Manager allows you to retrieve your endpoint data easily with a centralized configuration. However, each environment is different and has its own needs. The EAM has lots of configurable options that allow you to optimize it for each environment.

In order to configure the Endpoint Agent options in a centralized way, the EAM applies the configuration to the existing deployment via Ansible playbooks. Up to EA 1.2.1, the configuration to be deployed was in $HOME/devo-ea-deployer/playbooks/roles/files/deam-packs/options.yaml so every change to the configuration needed to be done there with osquery event flag naming convention. From EA 1.3 on, changes are centralized in the inventory file used for deployment following a different naming convention.

From EA 1.3.1 there are a set of agent configuration options that can only be set in the flags file which is deployed when the Endpoint Agent is installed using the package. These options can’t be set using the distributed option and can only be changed in the agent configuration in the running hosts.

If the changes to the centralized configuration are done via Ansible roles or via Web UI, the naming varies so this document intends to be a glossary of the parameter names that can be used when modifying it.

Via Ansible - 1.3.0 or beyond

In versions 1.3.0 or beyond, allowed options has been moved from the old options.yaml file to the inventory file. To add or change any option, open the inventory that has been used in your deployment and add the new flags to vars section.

Via Web UI (all versions) and via Ansible (EA 1.2.1 or previous)

Older versions like 1.2.1 or previous had a different way to add or change these options. In the uncompressed EAM directory, you need to modify the $HOME/devo-ea-deployer/playbooks/roles/deam-packs/files/devo-packs/options.yaml file and add or modify the flags in the corresponding sections.

Web UI changes keep names and keys, so if you want to make the changes non-persistent in the browser, you need to use these flags too.

watchdog → file_buffer_size

Total size in bytes per processed chunk.

int

watchdog → max_number_of_parts_per_file

Max number of processed events per chunk.

int

config_refresh

Specifies the interval in which the agent looks for updates of the configuration of the FilesFetcher extension in the EAM. Can be expressed in seconds (s), minutes (m) and hours (h).

duration

watchdog → max_concurrent_files

Number of parallel file processing. If this file is less than 2, no kind of file processing in parallel is used.

int

watchdog → scan_each

Minimum period between SQL queries to run new scan for new files.

duration

watchdog → max_file_part_size

Max number of processed events per chunk.

int

watchdog → allow_empty_paths

Allow empty paths.

boolean

pattern → tag

Destination in Devo for all ingested files. Overrides default one.

string

pattern → payload_format

Allows the user to remove the JSON wrapper around each event sent to Devo so the events are sent “as is”.
Accepted values: c:event

fixed

pattern → content_separator

Defines an event delimiter string. By default, events are processed as full line events.

string

pattern → file_processor

Allows setting a multiline events processing in conjunction with the content_separator string. Default value is fixed (single-line events).
Accepted values: fixed, multiline

fixed

pattern → threshold_file_modification_time

Negative number in duration format that represents the time the File Fetcher needs to consider that an event is fully written.
