Hi,
I think you remember the check_modulation to change the commands based on
the timeperiods. I think it was a bit too hard to use with the packs. So I
implement another idea from Olivier Hanesse : macro modulations. After all,
it's not really the full command wewant to change, but only the
warning/critical values for 99%in 99% of the cases.
So one easier way it to allow user to change the macros based on time. And
here we got : *macro_modulations* :)
It's quite easy to use, and will be fully compatible with the packs based
configuration.
Let's take our basic linux pack :
*define host{*
* name linux*
* use generic-host*
* check_command check_ping*
* register 0*
* _LOAD_WARN 2,2,2*
* _LOAD_CRIT 3,3,3*
*}*
We want to change the _LOAD_WARN and _LOAD_CRIT macro during a specific
timeperiod, like the "backup" one. All we need it to define this :
*define macromodulation{
macromodulation_name Huge_load_during_backup
modulation_period backup
_LOAD_WARN 5,5,5
_LOAD_CRIT 8,8,8
}
*
And in your linux template, or directly the hosts, you can call this
modulation :
*define host{
name linux
use generic-host
check_command check_ping
register 0
macromodulations Huge_load_during_backup
_LOAD_WARN 2,2,2
_LOAD_CRIT 3,3,3
}
*
And you are done. During this "backup" timeperiod, the custom macros will
be changed automatically in all your linux hosts. Of course you can have
several modulations by hosts.
You can give a test about this, the tests are OK and the code was quite
simple, so I think there should not be any bugs remaining of this :)
Good test :)
Jean
