Hi All
Hopefully you guys can steer me in the right direction ?
I have created a custom component monitor which queries a SQL database table and then calculates a return value of the below
>= 80% return value of 1
>= 60 % and <80 return value 2
else return value 0
0 : OK
1 : Critical
2 : Warning
This is working fine with the component monitor showing the correct status
However it now has come time to alert / trigger actions and reset actions
What i would like for the alert to do is
If the component name is equal to the 'sql component name'
AND the component status is Critical
then Trigger
A SQL stored procedure on the on the same sql server to update a table column to 0
on Reset
Another SQL stored procedure on the same sql to update the same table column to 1
We have tested both stored procedures and they work fine
However there is nothing in the Alert Actions or Reset Actions to run a SQL 'Native' to Solarwinds like the Alert
What i have figured is i have to 'Run an External Program' which is essentially a batch script to kick start the stored procedure.
Now this would work if i have a few components per component i need to monitor
BUT i need to monitor over 1000 'custom compnents' which would mean i have 2000 batch scripts
Can someone advise of another way ?
Thanks
