Here is mine example: to manage this i created two separate checkers, one for Inbound traffic, other for Outbound. And applied in that way:

Inline image 1

The same with Outbound.

Seems that fixes enormous counters on traffic utilization, still thinking what to do with error count rate

Did you see the "Require any condition" / "Require all conditions" dropdown on top? ;-)

I used this until now:

ifInOctets_perc ge 20
ifOutOctets_perc ge 20
ifInErrors_rate gt 1
ifOutErrors_rate gt 1
ifOperStatus notequals up

looks like the relation is OR between the lines . I added the "ifInOctets_perc lt 100" and "ifInOctets_perc lt 100" lines in this alert and i got continuously alerts because the percentage are always under 100% :)

I made a mistake or the realtion is OR instead of AND ?

You just put two lines in the alert definition.

blah gt 80

Hi

We have the same problem with Nexus 5K and 7.1(4)N1(1).

Is there any option to set up an alerts with a from.. and to.. values? Like if the value greather than 80% but lower than 100% send the alarm? In this case this percentage problem doesn't appear. Normally the alert just run if the percentage is over 80. Can we use an "AND" tag somehow?

Thanks

My Guess is that you are polling a Cisco Nexus which have a broken SNMP-stack, it sometimes reports crazy values for a couple of seconds.
If you are not already running it, try uppgrade to nx-os 7.x
Otherwise you can work around the problem by reconfigure you alert check with "delay 2" which will cause it to not send an alert unless the value is above the threshold for 2 polls in a row.

Hello,

What could be the reason of the generation of false alarm:


ALERT

Modify

Alert

MoreThan80PortUtilization

Entity

Ethernet1/51

Descr

NXOS1-ITXx2

Conditions

ifOutOctets_perc ge 80 (395649)

Metrics

ifInOctets_perc = 11
ifOutOctets_perc = 395649

Duration

10m 8s (2017-11-08 02:18:10)




As you coud notice the ifOutOctets_perc = 395649  shows some irregular value, which's not on the graphs itself, but the alarm is generated.

During migration the migration period from old observium server to new one, at same time we have two observiums running, so older one have the same alerts configured - but that (older one) haven't generated any false alarm.
So - waht could be the reason ?

Thanks!
