I've got a condition where one of the hard drives in my Cisco C240 chassis failed. Is there a way to build an alert checker to check on the status of drives in a server?
What data does the device provide that you could alert on? Do they have status indicators that we collect?

Yeah you can make an alert for status check for this. [image: image.png] Just make an alert of type Status and check for "status_event notequals ok"

Worked flawlessly... In fact too well, now it is catching some entities I don't care about like switch stack redundancy where no redundant switch exists... [image: image.png] Is there a way I can exclude entities from alerts as they pop up and I don't care about them? Sorry if all of this is basic stuff I should know.

You can edit the above check to "status_event equals alert" There är 3 levels for status: ok, varning, alert It will now match only alerts instead of everything that is not ok /Markus
