A way to spot check monitor functionality each morning?
A way to spot check monitor functionality each morning? We are trying to come up with ideas to do this, because one morning we found a production cluster not monitoring, and we were not alerted about it. I am familiar with "alert if no data received" for any particular datasource, but is there a way to do a more broad check automatically?

·10 years agoWe have many SNMP DataSources. For us, we do not alert on "no data" except for one purpose-built dataPoint we call SNMPHealthCheck which *does* alert if no data. That way, it can signal to us that SNMP may be in trouble vs. the monitored resource.

What kind of device was it?
