[Xymon] analysis.cfg: connection test

[David Baldwin]

Christian,

DURATION is in alerts.cfg - sets a delay before notification of red
status is alerted.
http://xymon.com/xymon/help/manpages/man5/alerts.cfg.5.html

delayred is in hosts.cfg - defers update to red on test status

> Hello all,
>
>  
>
> I have the following in my analysis.cfg:
>
>  
>
> HOST=HOST.DOMAIN.ORG
>
>         DS conn tcp.conn.rrd:sec >0.03 COLOR=red TEXT="Response time
> &V exceeds &U seconds"
>
>  
>
> It should the Xymon-test let go to red if the response time exceeds 30
> milliseconds - this is working.
>
>  
>
> My problem is, that I would need Xymon to go red if this persist for
> more than i. e. 5 minutes. Would that be possible?
>
> I’ve looked in the man page of analysis.cfg, but I didn’t find
> something about such a feature. I know from alerts.cfg there’s a
> keyword “DURATION”.
>
> I think that would be something around what I would need here…
>
>  
>
> Does Xymon have this feature and I just didn’t find it until now?
>
> Or would it be better to let Xymon go yellow it the above matches and
> configure the needed mechanism in the alerts.cfg?
>
> I. e. send out an eMail-notification if the yellow status persists for
> more than 5  minutes?
