Please help create an alert :) Nexus FEX PS problem
Hello
At the night the Observium showed an alert (fortunately) that I never set up in the Alert checks . I see this alert in Global/Alerts and the left up box there is an “1 alert” in the Statuses row. If I click the “1 alert” it shows me that a Cisco Nexus FEX modul’s powersupply EVENT is alert and Status is offDenied. So it is a dead PS.
What I can to do if I would like to get alert if this happen again? I have lot of Alert Checks but I am not able to do an alert for this PS check because I don’t know what is the correct Entity match of it. I tried the “sensor_class equals powersupply” and Test is “sensor_value greater 2” (looks the normal PS value is 2, now this failed PS value is 4). But it doesn’t work (no matched entities).
Thanks Laszlo
You want a status entity type, with status_event = alert

Thanks!
I created this:
Test conditions: status_event = alert Device match: hostname match *switch Entity match: status
But it shows me in the Status/Contact field 377/0/0/0/0. So no error, but in the left side I see Statuses 1 alert (this is the original powersupply error). If I check the list where is the 377 items (global/alert checks and select this new alert that I created), there is no the failed PS. Just every other that status is OK. It looks like a list that filtered any error and just shows that is OK.
Oh and I may be found a bug.
If I created an alert, in the alert details (I think it is a new option) I can set up the contact associate directly. If I select a contant here and press the “+ Associate” nothing happen. But if I go to Global / Alert checks / Contacts select a contant and here I select what I want to associate to this contact, in this way I can associate it. But no in the global/Alert checks, select an alert check, alert details and here the Contact doesn’t work.
Thanks Laszlo
