I am able to create the trigger conditions no problem, suppression conditions piece of cake, drop links so concerned party is forced to log in and address the issue instead of acking and forgetting....check.
The problem I have been attacking for the past 2 days is getting the information I need in a custom script component monitor to be sent through the email alert.
Details:
I am monitoring some home grown apps that need to be alerted on when one or more members of a node (in this instance think of it as a group of servers performing similar tasks grouped together in a similar manner to a server farm/ cluster though not exactly a cluster or farm) fall outside the absolute performance stats defined in the script used in the Linux/Unix script monitor template, with an output as follows:
Message.ALO: OK
Statistic.ALO: 0
Message.AHI: HIGH ABS company_cache_age hostname.argh T:1200 A:2870,
Statistic.AHI: 1
Message.RLO: OK
Statistic.RLO: 0
Message.RHI: OK
Statistic.RHI: 0
My question is this, is there a variable that I am needing that I am not finding when I create my trigger action email? I try to get the script out putto get emailed but I cannot seem to find it.
Here is the email definition:
