FSMonitor
The FSMonitor class manages filesystem watches and is used to receive events. Call the adddirwatch method to add a directory watch to the monitor: m = FSMonitor watch = m.adddirwatch ('/dir/to/watch') Once a watch has been added, you can call readevents to read a list of filesystem events. A cross-platform Keepass Secret Management vault extension. See the README.MD in the module for more details. In this article. The following table lists the filter altitude allocations for each of the following load order groups. NOTE: this page is updated 1-2 times per year. FSMonitor and the scalable monitor, and demonstrate its capabilities by using it to drive a research automation system. Our experiments show that FSMonitor scales well on a 897 TB Lustre store, where it is able to process and report 37948 events per second, while providing a standard event representation on various storage systems.

What tool do you use when you try to snoop it and find which find are being modified? Do you use Jamf Composer? fs_usage? FSEventer?
Well FSMonitor might be your new best buddy. It was soft launched earlier this year. I just cannot believed I missed it. Thank you, Armin Briegel, for telling me!
Well the website is complete enough that I don't need to add anything apart from some good use cases (Tweet/Comment if you have other ones!):
Fse Monitoring
- Find which plist gets modified from a particular setting
- Find what files get moved/installed/removed when doing something such as installing Chrome
- See if a process is doing stuff behind your back
Fsmonitor
Just a word of caution: Packaging is hard, try not to if you can. Sometimes, pushing the original package with a Configuration Profile might suffice. Also, events might get dropped if there's too many. That's by design from the Apple API.
