CPU trigger based on number of cores

[dreas]

Hi all,

We have different servers with different CPUs. Based on the number of cores of the machines I'd like to set the trigger for system.cpu.load[,avg5]. Is there any trick for that without manually defining the trigger per server?

You can't do conditionals in a trigger, but you might be able to get there using dependencies.

TrgA = CPU cores =1 or =2
TrgB = CPU cores =3 or =4
TrgC = CPU cores >4

TrgHighA = TrgA and Procload > 2
TrgHighB = TrgB and Procload > 4
TrgHighC = TrgC and Procload > 5

It's kinda messy, but with the subject and trigger text being the same the user shouldn't know the difference.
