    QQ, I have a process that spawns osqueryd and I want my process to also be the config extension of osqueryd. If I pass
    --config_plugin=mycustomconfig
    I’ll get an error saying this plugin is unknown. The example I know to work with config plugin work the opposite way:
    Copy code
    ./osqueryd --extension /path/to/config.ext --config_plugin=mycustomconfig
    but in this case osqueryd needs to spawn the extension binary. Is there any approach in which I can run osqueryd and register myself as config plugin without making it spawn a different process?

    Hi guys, could you advise me on how to use osquery to retrieve the same configurations that I previously obtained via the
    sysctl -a
    command?

    Is anyone using the
    jetbrains_plugins
    table with success? I'm unable to get it to return results on hosts that have jetbrains plugins installed. Trying both via osqueryi locally and w/ distributed queries via Fleet.

    Hi, I have a question about how the
    --events_optimize
    parameter works; it is enabled by default. I currently have
    --watchdog_level=0
    in my osquery configuration, and
    --events_optimize
    is set to false. I collect data from the *_events tables and I’m concerned that I might run into issues with losing some logs. According to the documentation, this parameter works as follows:
    Copy code
    Every time the SELECT query runs on a subscriber, the current time is saved. Subsequent SELECTs will use the previously saved time as the lower bound.
    I’m interested in how the current time is saved: is it recorded after the query completes successfully, or before the query completes, at execution time? Just in case a query against a *_events table becomes resource-intensive, the watchdog may kill the osquery process, and if the current time is saved at execution time, I could lose logs, since the next query will no longer see older events.
