Difference between logged fields in agent and backend lead to confusion
Expected Behavior
When reviewing logs for the Sensu agent and backend, logged field names should be consistent between the two pieces of software. Ideally, the consistency enables operators to better troubleshoot without having to do some mental gymnastics to know what field is equal to another field.
Current Behavior
When reviewing logs from the agent and backend, there are some inconsistencies between the logged field names, leading to confusion. For example:
Agent | Backend |
---|---|
check | checkname |
event_uuid | event_id |
entity | entity_name |
Possible Solution
Review the logged field names and ensure that they're consistent between agent and backend.
