func MapActiveStateForPosture ¶

func MapActiveStateForPosture(active string) string

MapActiveStateForPosture maps a service's reported state to running|stopped|unknown.

It has to understand two vocabularies, because two collectors write to the same field. systemd says "active" and "inactive"; the sysvinit and Upstart collector says "running" outright. Understanding only systemd's words meant a sysvinit entry mapped to "unknown", so a service the machine had plainly reported as running was dropped as unreadable.

The services collector may join substate as "active/running".

func SystemctlIsActiveState ¶

func SystemctlIsActiveState(ctx context.Context, unit string) string

SystemctlIsActiveState runs systemctl is-active (bounded). Returns running, stopped, or unknown.
