Hi,

Apologies if this has been covered previously, I can’t seem to browse any mailing list archives as the link is dead.

I have previously used custom OIDs to monitor a VoIP Application (FreeSWITCH) but found I couldn’t alert on custom OIDs, and that the graphing wasn’t as customisable as I wanted, so I have built a custom application for freeswitch.

I now want to be able to raise alerts on a few things, such as when the number of new sessions per second is over a predefined value or when the uptime resets (application pop and restart).

I can’t seem to find a way of creating an alert check for anything that’s not one of the basic properties of a device though.

Could someone please tell me if this is possible? For example can I create my own attributes in the device then query them with an alert check? I have tried adding something like:

$device[‘device_state’].[’my parameter’] = value

But that
doesn’t seem to be stored outside of the php script.

It’s quite important that we are able to alert on custom parameters and I can either provide these as OIDs or through the unix agent, whichever gets the job done.

Thanks,

Neil.
