Hi Tom,

if I understood correctly, does this metric replace the legacy up/down alerting system?

Thanks,

Stefano

Yup, you need a more recent version, device entity was added 17/4.

Hi Tom,

Actually we haven’t updated in a while (we are an ITIL shop and updating can be a pain). Here is our version:

[root@yoda observium]# svn info /opt/observium/includes/definitions/entities.inc.php |grep ^Last

Last Changed Author: sid3windr

Last Changed Rev: 5005

Last Changed Date: 2014-02-18 19:28:55 +0100 (Tue, 18 Feb 2014)

Do we need to update?

Erik,

Are you on the latest version? (It's probably not in the stable branch yet?)

root@observium1:~# svn info /opt/observium/includes/definitions/entities.inc.php |grep ^Last
Last Changed Author: sid3windr
Last Changed Rev: 5331
Last Changed Date: 2014-04-17 01:00:32 +0200 (Thu, 17 Apr 2014)

root@observium1:~# grep device /opt/observium/includes/definitions/entities.inc.php
$config['entities']['device']['id_field']             = 'device_id';

Hi,

Is there a way for using the new alerting system to send an e-mail when a device goes down?

I see in the wiki that there is a “device_status” metric, but I can’t figure out how to use it. There is no “Device” entity type when I try to make a new alert checker.

Is this feature still in development?

Erik
