Milton, I disagree, for example, how do you set up a rule to apply to all devices (past and future)? It appears you cannot, however, you could in the past and that are what all the examples show. I like observium quite a lot, however, its these things (like documentation that is not current) that can really frustrate a user.

The only thing that has really change is the association rule set. Instead of it being a text entry like the test conditions, there is now an expression builder, but the fields and operators are still the same. That should be easier that before. The test/check condition documentation is still relevant. That hasn't changed.

This is what modern version looks like, unfortunately, there are no docs for this.

I can't really say what "modern" Observium looks like, I haven't updated our SVN pull for a while. But the version we are running has Test Conditions and the syntax for those looks like what is on the examples page, so I assumed that this should still be relevant. Hopefully Pieter can figure it out from there.

There is a problem with these examples, they don’t work for modern Observium. Now that observium uses test conditions and “association rulesets”, the documentation is broke and you cannot implement these examples the way they are shown.
It would be REALLY helpful to have updated documentation. I am stull struggling with checkers because it is all trial and error.

Hi All,
Is there a way to alert on port usage percentage ? If so, what is the metric called ?
We are *currently* on CE.
Thanks,
