Trigger expression in action notificatoin

[mario.almeida]

Hi All,

I have the below trigger.

{Template-app-00:net.tcp.listen[8080].last(0)}=0 | {Template-app-00:net.tcp.listen[1099].last(0)}=0 | {Template-app-00:net.tcp.listen[9090].last(0)}=0


When sending an alert I want to include the port which caused the trigger.

Any idea how can I get this?

Hi,

Can you please give an example?

In the documentation it say {ITEM.NAME<1-9>}, But how do I know which Nth item has caused the notification?

I tried with {ITEM.NAME} it always give me the 1st item, even though if it is caused due to the 2nd or 3rd item.

You may include the following details into your message:

----------
Port statuses:

Port 1099: {{HOSTNAME}:net.tcp.listen[1099].last(0)}
Port 8080: {{HOSTNAME}:net.tcp.listen[8080].last(0)}
Port 9090: {{HOSTNAME}:net.tcp.listen[9090].last(0)}
----------

I hope it helps.

Thanks Alexei,

I would rather prefer to have.

{ITEM.NAME1}: {ITEM.LASTVALUE1}
{ITEM.NAME2}: {ITEM.LASTVALUE2}
{ITEM.NAME3}: {ITEM.LASTVALUE3}

Coz my triggers are per templates bases.
eg:-

Temp-00
monitors port 1099,1100,8080
Temp-01
monitors port 1199,1200,8180
etc...

Any chance of having a variable which holds the KEYNAME that caused the notification?

Hi,

Any chance of having a variable which holds the KEYNAME that caused the notification?

This would only work for triggers of the form A | B | C as in your example.
What would be the value of KEYNAME if both A and B are true ?
Which variable would be the cause in more complex triggers as A & B | (C & (D | E)) ?

If you really need to know which item is the cause of notification, why don't you create 3 simple triggers instead ?
Trigger1 : {Template-app-00:net.tcp.listen[8080].last(0)}=0
Trigger2 : {Template-app-00:net.tcp.listen[1099].last(0)}=0
Trigger3 : {Template-app-00:net.tcp.listen[9090].last(0)}=0

I know, but looking for some alternative.

Sure.

I have around 35 to 40 servers, each server will have 4 to 6 templates (min is 4) and if I create 3 triggers per templates (3 is just an example, jboss ejb needs many other ports) then I need to add that many triggers in the action.

suppose I have just 1 trigger and need to add another port, then modify trigger in that templates only Action notification will remain as it is.
