v2.0.0

Version 2.0.0 Updates - A complete rewrite of the LM Cloud Resource Inventory tool.

Overview

This release completely rewrites the tool from PowerShell scripts to a unified Python-based CLI supporting all four cloud providers (AWS, Azure, GCP, OCI) with a consistent user experience.

Installation

# From PyPI
pip install lm-cloud-inventory

# From source
git clone https://github.com/logicmonitor/lm-cloud-resource-inventory.git
cd lm-cloud-resource-inventory
pip install .

Quick Start

lmci run -p aws -o aws_summary.csv
lmci run -p azure -o azure_summary.csv
lmci run -p gcp -o gcp_summary.csv
lmci run -p oci -o oci_summary.csv

Why This Rewrite?

The previous PowerShell implementation had several limitations:

Issue	v1 (PowerShell)	v2 (Python)
Provider support	AWS, Azure only	AWS, Azure, GCP, OCI
Performance	Slow (iterates regions/services)	Fast (cloud-native APIs)
Permissions	Sometimes required elevation	Read-only only
License calculation	Coupled with collection	Decoupled & configurable
Installation	PowerShell-dependent	`pip install`

What's New

Unified CLI

All providers use the same command structure:

# Full command
lm-cloud-inventory run -p <provider> [options]

# Short alias
lmci run -p <provider> [options]

Option	Description
`-p, --provider`	Cloud provider: `aws`, `azure`, `gcp`, `oci`
`-o, --output`	Output CSV file
`-d, --detailed`	Detailed breakdown by region
`--profile`	AWS CLI profile name
`-s, --subscription`	Azure subscription ID (repeatable)
`--project`	GCP project ID
`--compartment`	OCI compartment OCID
`-v, --verbose`	Debug logging

Cloud-Native APIs

Provider	API Used	Performance
AWS	Resource Explorer	~2-5 min (all regions in one call)
Azure	Resource Graph	~1-2 min
GCP	Cloud Asset Inventory	~1-2 min
OCI	Search Service	~1 min

Hybrid Resource Units

Calculates LogicMonitor Hybrid Resource Units automatically:

TOTALS
----------------------------------------
  IaaS                        150
  PaaS                        350
  Non-Compute                 500
----------------------------------------
  HYBRID RESOURCE UNITS       200
    (IaaS: 150 + PaaS: ceil(350/7))

Decoupled Architecture

Collection: Gathers raw inventory → inventory.json
Calculation: Applies license rules → summary.csv
Configuration: Resource mappings in config/resource_mappings.json

This allows updating license rules without code changes.

Breaking Changes

⚠️ PowerShell scripts are deprecated (still in repo for reference)
⚠️ AWS requires Resource Explorer to be enabled
⚠️ Credential setup uses cloud-native credential chains

AWS Resource Explorer Limitations

The following services are not indexed by AWS Resource Explorer:

Service	Notes
CloudSearch	Domain
MediaConnect	Flow
MediaConvert	Queue
OpsWorks	Stack
Q Business	Application
QuickSight	Dashboard only
Simple Workflow (SWF)	Domain
Application Migration Service	Source Server
ElasticTranscoder	Pipeline

Contact your LogicMonitor representative for manual inventory if you use these services significantly.
