Sudoers templates for elevation in UNIX/Linux monitoring
Effective monitoring of UNIX or Linux operating systems requires some elevated permissions on the client system for both monitoring and maintenance tasks. There are sudoers configuration templates provided in this article for baseline operability.
Introduction
In order to use sudo-enabled accounts for monitoring with Operations Manager, configurations must be put into place to authorize elevation for RunAs Accounts using sudo. General requirements for the accounts used by Operations Manager with sudo elevation are:
- The accounts must have RequireTTY disabled as a default parameter.
- The accounts must be configured to elevate with NOPASSWD.
- The accounts must have the "lecture" that typically is shown when logging in, and when elevating using sudo, disabled.
The provided templates specify the commands that allow the configured RunAs Accounts to execute tasks that require elevated permissions such as:
- Installing the agent
- Upgrading the agent
- Uninstalling the agent
- Monitoring system logs
- Restarting the agent services
- Facilitating the creation of authentication certificates
Note
Commands and requirements are not the same across all UNIX/Linux distributions or versions, ensure you have the correct template for your Operating System.
Don't see your OS? Refer to the Supported UNIX and Linux operating system versions page for supported distributions.
Using the templates
Select the appropriate template for your Operating System and replace the example accounts with your RunAs Account usernames, include are other organizational customizations if necessary.
In each template there are two accounts defined and maps to standard RunAs Accounts as:
| RunAs Account | Username |
|---|---|
| UNIX/Linux Action Account | scomuser |
| UNIX/Linux Maintenance Account | scomadm |
Once updated with the correct usernames and any extra modifications, the template must be added to the client system's sudoers configuration. There are typically two ways to add sudo configurations, either by directly modifying the /etc/sudoers or /etc/sudo.conf file (depending on the OS), or by adding a "drop in" file under /etc/sudoers.d (ex. /etc/sudoers.d/scom). This article doesn't go into detail on how to fully configure sudo itself. For more information, see the documentation provided by the vendor for your specific operating system.

Other commands
When using the ExecuteShellScript method to run elevated scripts, add the following line your sudoers file for your user:
scomuser ALL=(root) NOPASSWD: /etc/opt/microsoft/scx/conf/tmpdir/scx*
This line is required as the ExecuteShellScript method copies the contents of the elevated script to a temporary file with a randomly generated filename in tmpdir and execute it from there.
When using the ExecuteShellCommand method to run elevated commands, add something like this in your sudoers file:
/bin/shis the default shell of the user running the command, and (in this example)./usr/bin/vmstat -cis the command you want to run.
scomuser ALL=(root) NOPASSWD: /bin/sh -c /usr/bin/vmstat -c
There should be no quotes around the command as only the shell recognizes them, sudo doesn't.
Troubleshooting
Sudo error log
One of the best ways to troubleshoot authentication failures related to sudoers configurations can be to inspect the sudo log on the agent host.
- For RedHat based operating systems, the default log location is
/var/log/secure. - For Debian based operating systems, the default log location is
/var/log/auth.log.
Check the /etc/sudoers file for the logfile parameter to see where the log is currently being written to if using a different operating system or customized log location.
Password prompts and timeouts
By default, sudo prompts for a password if a command isn't configured with NOPASSWD for the user, there's no functionality to automatically input passwords when prompted like this, and breaks monitoring. To prevent extended issues if NOPASSWD isn't configured for a command, the recommendation is to configure the following option in sudoers for the user account:
Defaults:scomuser passwd_tries = 1, passwd_timeout = 1
This example sets a one-minute password prompt timeout for the user scomuser, which allows the command to fail quickly if a sudo configuration problem exists.
