Hi,

 really I'm not sure that this should work currently,
because this limits fetched from DB returns as "" (empty string).

:D

I will do additional tests with this conditions,
but I think for this case also possible use:

 sensor_limit ne

(yes, also without last value)

Hi all,

 

Thank you for adding this option J We also had some false positives due this missing function.

I changed some alerts now and it’s working fine so far.

 

Example test condition (require all conditions):

sensor_value ge @sensor_limit

sensor_value ne 0

sensor_limit notnull

Does  “sensor_value notmatch“ work?

 

That’ll end up being  ‘ if $sensor_value != “” ‘ or there abouts

 

I’ve just added “isnull” and “notnull” operators (last argument isn’t used), but you need to be running r10226 for that.

Subject: [Observium] Alert : Matching "null" value in condition?

 

Hello,

 

In alerting, do you have the option to match "null" value?

For example, to match/not match the sensor with sensor_limit_warm = null value.

 

My goal it's create alerting with "sensor_value gt @sensor_warn" but excluding when sensor_warm is "null" in database. Because that's create false positives.

 

Thanks!

 

Johann
