Change status of node when alert triggered

rpolchlopek over 15 years ago

Is it possible to change the status of a node (windows server) when an alert is triggered. What I am trying to do is monitor disk space and when it reaches 85% send an alert AND change the status of the node from green to yellow. As far as I can tell it only changes from green to red when the node is down. I would like this to display on the map, so at a glance you can tell if any of the nodes have an alert triggered. Obviously I would want it to reset when the condition went away. Is this possible?

Not at this time. What you want to do will be possible in Application Performance Monitor 2.0, which will release soon.

OK... So I got APM 2.0 installed. Any tips on how to accomplish this?

OK. I'm reading what you originally asked, and I can see that I mis-understood what you were trying to do. I focused on the monitor disk space and change status part, which APM 2.0 can do. But it can't change status of the node.
In 2.0, you can use WMI to monitor disk space. You can set 85% as the threshold, and the status of the Application including that component will change status from Up to Warning or Critical. If you have All Applications organized by node, the status of the node including this applicaiton would change to show that something is wrong.
I skimmed over the maps piece. We can't do that today; that's a change to Orion NPM, which we're actively working on now.
Sorry if I my answer was mis-leading.

Has the NPM status changing on high volumes etc been sorted now?
We are desperate for it!

We can show thresholds on Network Atlas in 9.5, but we haven't extended that to general status.
