Re: [Observium] Alert on device status = degraded

18 Jul 2016

      Hi,
You probably want to use status_event!
Status entities all have their specific states translated in to ok/error/warn/ignore. This is to make it easier to build alerts from them.

With a little RTFM and experimentation I have worked this out.

Create an alert checker of entity type “Status”
Check condition:       status_name notequals healthy
Association entity match condition:        status_type equals

steelhead-system-state
Simple now that it all makes sense to me.
Thanks!

Howdy all
I have a steelhead that is showing “Degraded” status in Observium due
to a power supply issue.

In Observium I can see the status “degraded” at this location:
https://observium/device/device=12/tab=health/metric=status/id=123/
I can also see that the status changed 8 days ago.
DB sample:
<!--
   - Database: 'observium'
   -->
   <database name="observium">
       <!-- Table status -->
       <table name="status">
           <column name="status_id">123</column>

           <column

       <column name="status_mib">NULL</column>
       <column name="status_object">NULL</column>

       <column name="measured_entity">NULL</column>
       <column name="status_ignore">0</column>
       <column name="status_disable">0</column>
   </table>
   <!-- Table status-state -->
   <table name="status-state">
       <column name="status_id">123</column>
       <column name="status_value">30000</column>
       <column name="status_polled">1468819524</column>
       <column name="status_last_change">1468104632</column>
       <column name="status_event">alert</column>
       <column name="status_name">degraded</column>
   </table>

   </database>
I am trying to set up an alert in Observium such that when a device
status / System Health changes I am notified. Is there a way to access
values from status-state table in setting up alerts?
...
Thanks
