Adam,


Thank you, that helps. I was confused on if average was a description entity type or a metric. Cheers.

This pseudoentity is only created on UNIX/windows hosts, where the individual threads are meaningless.

For this just match Average in the processor_descr

Adam,

 

Essentially I just need to know how to make a checker for processor average CPU (across all cores) for some device types. Thank you!

Adam,


If it’s not in the docs, is there anything I can grep around and find? I’m a decent nerd, just point me in the right direction!

Documentation is sadly always a lowish priority, especially for things like this which were added at 4am in the morning after a user request :)

Team,

 

The most difficult part of alert checker creation is finding all the detected entity types to alert for.

 

I noticed for Linux, there’s a special entity type for average CPU, but I cannot figure out how to see what’s available?

 

I see this on the entity page, but how do I know what that entity is named?

Special Situations

On UNIX/Linux systems we generate a special "Average" processor entity by calculating the average cpu load for all processors. Use this for alerting on UNIX/Linux.
