How can I remove this 360 monitoring stuff?
How can I remove this plugin from my servers? It's not good to have it installed without asking.

YES - we do have an API call for this now here:
whmapi1 EcosystemFeatures/local_disable plugin=cpanel-monitoring-pluginI'm also working with the team and getting that documented somewhere more official than a Forums post so it's easier to find.

That doesn't seem to work
# whmapi1 EcosystemFeatures/local_disable plugin=cpanel-monitoring-plugin

status: 0
statusmsg: "Permission Denied: EcosystemFeatures/local_disable"This is on a cPanel DNS-only server running:
OS: AlmaLinux v8.10.0 DNSONLY kvm
cPanel Version: 124.0.280 -
@... - I believe this is related to DNSOnly but let me find out!

For DNSOnly machines, this will do the trick:
touch /var/cpanel/feature-flags/cpanel.360-monitoring.plugin.local.disable
rm -vf /var/cpanel/feature-flags/cpanel.360-monitoring.plugin.installed
/var/cpanel/plugins/monitoring/uninstall.sh
systemctl disable --now agent360.serviceThat manually does what the API call does.

For anyone else who is looking to disable this feature the steps I found in this guide worked for me.

Thank you!
IP addresses to blacklist (49.12.23.186, 88.198.22.168, 95.217.235.103, 116.203.118.7, 23.88.44.194) to prevent any communication with external servers if you need.
It is almost impossible to completely disable 360 monitoring on DNSonly.

CPRex - Has anybody confirmed if UHLHosting's approach works to prevent the app from re-installing?

No, I would still expect it to be reinstalled after that.

So, it seems we'll set up a nightly cron to run the scripts.
We've taken a very close look at the 360 monitoring and want to remove it permanently because a) the Lite version doesn't provide any utility for us, and b) the pricing model for the paid versions would not be cost effective for our tiny 5-cpanel-server network. Maybe if we convert the rest of our 2 dozen boxes to cpanel it would make sense, but none of them are web hosting, so that would be a waste.
