Not at the moment. I suspect all of the eventlog stuff will be rewritten at some point...

Fair enough.
In the mean time, there seems to be some sort of an event type for a device that is down. Is that event written to the eventlog? Is there a way to export that eventlog to syslog?
I'm trying like hell to get rid of an OpenNMS install and replace it with an Observium install. I figure I could use some sort of syslog parser to email eventlogs turned syslog until the alerts are further along.

At the moment the system only allows you to work with the entity types in the drop down menu.
Adding the rest of the entity types is quite easy, so they won't take long.
Adding support for non-entity metrics of a device is a little more tricky. We've not quite decided on the best way to do that yet, so we're leaving to for a while.
It's probably going to be as simple as dropping the entity_match field and applying the tests directly to the device, but we're not entirely decided. There are a lot of things which don't really have an entity per se, and we're still working out how to uncouple them from the device so we don't end up with a huge and unusable set of "device entity" checks.
