Servers status

Purpose

With this monitor you will have an alert every time a server is in an unexpected state for more time than a threshold you’ve configured. For example, you can have an alert when a server is in the state “stopped” for more than one minute. As it’s completely customizable, you can make sure that nobody activates a server that you don’t want it to be working. This monitor can also send metrics concerning the state of the servers.

Configuration hints

Use the button “Load servers” to get the servers from your BO system. Then select the servers you want to monitor. Use the surveillance table to define multiple rules. Each line concern one or several servers and can generate alerts or metrics. Use the special character “*” to define a rule for all the servers The state “Not running” includes all the states excepted the state “Running”
