Some other users happen to use successfully toner alerts with Observium?
Yup.

Ps: may I ask you to be a little more gentle with all those "stupid CE users"? Not all of them is using the CE version because s/he wants to buy beers on the money saved, and with time some/most of them are going to mature into "Professional users", so being gentle with them is an investment, even if it takes time/patience.
While you make a fair point (and I do kind of agree), Observium development is fairly fast-paced, and we all work with and on the current version which is several months ahead of CE. We simply can't remember all things that are and are not in CE which was released x time ago. It kind of works the 2 weeks after CE is released, then things are desync ;)

You need to hover the blue/white (i) icon *on an alert checker result* to get a popup giving you the metrics the alert checker found. If "measured" is empty it usually means you didn't specify a valid metric to check.

No one remembers what's in CE, that's why you shouldn't run it if you want anyone to help you.

You mean the 'cog' icon belonging to the device which should get the alert, on the alert checker overview page for which I sent the screenshot?
I try to hover over it, but it doesn't do anything.
As a comparison, the 'i' icon before it displays the alert history as it should.

Btw, I tried to peek into the inner workings of the page, and I couldn't see anything related to some kind of hover overlay for the cog icon. Is this already available in the CE version, or only in the stable/nightly?

Thanks,
Attila

The current version of Observium doesn't have a 'toner' entity type.

Well, I hope this would do as proof. :)



I changed the rule, done a Rebuild and done a poll on the specific printer (the second one in the list which has it's details listed, you can see it says checked 7 seconds ago).
Am I OK in believing that this should be enough?
What else info should I provide?

Thanks.

At this point you need to prove that you did it, and that it had no effect.

Thanks for the advice.
Sadly no, it doesn't change it's status.

Other thoughts?

Remove the % from the condition. That should work then.

Hi All!

I'm fairly new with the alerts, so don't hit me too hard. :)

I'm trying to create an alert checker for some printers, it should send an alert when the toner level is below 5%.

The associations seem OK, at least my Device Match rule "type equals printer" (with an "*" entity match) yields all the printers in Observium.
But the condition rule seems suspect to me.
Based on the documentation and the examples I wrote:
"supply_value lt 5%"
but it shows everything OK on all printers, despite of having at least 3 printers with 1% toner cartridge.

Could you help me, what am I doing wrong, or what's missing?

Btw: I'm using the latest CE version. Should I include some more information?

Regards,
Tylla
