Can I set a different threshold for C drive from D or E drive space?
Hi, Our Windows servers have the standard alerting based on Volume Capacity. When Used Percent gets to 90%, we get a warning, 95% error, etc. How could we change this so that the C drive uses a different set of thresholds than the D drive? Can we do that within the basic DataSource or would we have to have one DataSource that just checks C and one that just checks D? I don’t want to clutter everything up, but if this is easy to do, it would come in handy. Thanks.137Views6likes5CommentsNew Alert Threshold Options In Portal 200
We were reading through the new alert threshold options coming up and we are very excited. This will solve a ton of our problems and allow us to be more agile for our clients. Being able to control alert interval at various levels now and controlling no data is awesome! 1 issue tho. The continued bad design around UI v4.I use 4k monitors at 100%. Why in the world is the threshold adjustment so tiny and hard to work with? Now truthfully I don’t always go around maximizing my browser windows, but still. This feels like so much wasted space.61Views12likes2CommentsAny way to only generate alerts during business hours?
Hi, We have a Datasource that runs a script to check the status of a Job. That Job only runs during business hours (e.g. 8-5 M-F). We need a way to not have it check after hours. Option 1 was to set a recurring SDT. This would stop the notifications, but the checks would still show as alerts in the UI so we don’t want that. Option 2 was to set Time-based thresholds within the Datasource. However, that doesn’t let you specify Days of the Week anywhere so that also won’t work. Anyone have any other ideas on how we can configure this to only check and alert during business hours? Thanks.85Views9likes4CommentsIdeas to maintain thresholds across thousands of devices and even more instances.
I have an ask to standardize some thresholds based on device type. We break out folders out like so: Clients/CLIENTID/Location/Techstack We then have roll up folders under each client for reporting/automation Clients/CLIENTID/ZZZ_Firewalls The ask brought to myselfand my team is to standardize thresholds based on techstack. The first one I was given is that all Firewalls should have status and X% for in/out on Interfaces. My first idea was to script it and use our automation platform to run daily or every other day to check if a threshold is set, and if not, set it. The issue there is on the initial dry run, I am at over 11 hours and maybe 40% through. This script loops through each client ZZZ_Firewalls folder, gets the interfaces, then checks if a threshold is set. If not, it sets the base threshold. I figured I would break it in half A-N and M-Z and run both concurrently. But in testing M-Z, 1 client is taking almost 10 hours, and I have another of the same size in that block. I also have 1-3 clients of similar size in A-N. Second idea was to create a dynamic group that encompasses all of the /Firewalls/ devices and set the threshold on that folder. But I was leery of that as we could end up with oddities on deepest folder wins. We also cannot simply edit the datasource as this datasource applies to much more than just Firewalls. Any ideas would be appreciated.Solved114Views7likes6Comments6 polls, 5 poll cycles, or 12 minutes
Alright, take a look at this. The poll rate for this DS is 2 minutes. What is the trigger window? Assume all the criteria is met starting a 1:59PM and 30 seconds (between polls). When will the alert be triggered? It’s actually 10 minutes (2:10 PM, +/- a couple seconds for collector task queue delay and assuming original scheduling at the top of the hour). Do you know why?Why does it say 12 minutes? Why not 10? Is this behavior different than regular alert trigger intervals?Solved57Views2likes3Comments
