[Xymon] Xymonnet : multiple http testing, percentage of success

[didier.bringer at orange.com]

Hi all,

I used combo and I was very pleased but... I've seen a behavior that is very strange to me

Let's say I'm monitoring AirConditionners

I have a combo and hosts like this

Combo_AirConditionnersX  alarm

AirConditionners1  alarm
AirConditionners2  alarm
AirConditionners3  alarm
AirConditionners4  alarm
AirConditionners5  alarm
AirConditionners6  alarm
AirConditionners7  alarm

My combo rule is

Combo_AirConditionnersX.alarm = (AirConditionners1 + AirConditionners2 + AirConditionners3 + AirConditionners4 + AirConditionners5 + AirConditionners6 + AirConditionners7) >= 5


So if i have more than 2 AirConditionners disfunctionning I am alerted

But If I have 3 AirConditionners in maintenance (blue) then it triggers a red, to my mind it would be nicer not to count the "blue" status in the calculation ...

Any thoughts ?

Hello

Let's say we monitor 10 front web servers with xymonnet

0.0.0.0  www1                  # http://www1.xxx
0.0.0.0  www2                  # http://www2.xxx
...
0.0.0.0  www10                # http://www10.xxx


I'm looking for a paging rule that would only page if more than 20% of my servers are not responding
This way if I have a server that crash during the night I am not awaken

I was thinking of a feature that create a sort of new fake host like this


0.0.0.0    www1to10                        # (red  if failure >2 among www1/http www2/http www3/http... www10/http)
----------------------
0.0.0.0  www1                  # http://www1.xxx
0.0.0.0  www2                  # http://www2.xxx
...
0.0.0.0  www10                # http://www10.xxx


Thanks in advance
