Hi all: I have an event group rule where I record every event that occurs into a context. What I would like to do is prune events that are no longer in the window from the context. While I can use the:
slide = shift files_$1_accessed %DISCARD action to remove the oldest entry, sometimes I get two or more lines recorded in the same second. Since the slide only triggers once for the two lines, I end up accumulating extra lines that will be reported if the threshold is crossed. While I can trim the context to include only "thresh" lines when reporting it, I would prefer to keep the context trimmed as I go along so status dumps (generated with a USR1 signal) would show the events that are currently in play. Is there some way to get the count of events in a window similar to how I can get a window position with getwpos? I would expect to use the (hypothetical) getwevcount similarly to: slide = getwevcount %lines 0 ;\ getsize %evcount acl_violations ;\ lcall %remove_lines %evcount %lines -> ( sub { $_[0]-$_[1]; } ) ;\ while %remove_lines ( shift acl_violations %discard; \ lcall %remove_lines %remove_lines -> ( sub { $_[0]-1; } ) ; \ ) ; Anybody with an alternate idea on how I could get what I want? -- -- rouilj John Rouillard =========================================================================== My employers don't acknowledge my existence much less my opinions. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ CenturyLink Cloud: The Leader in Enterprise Cloud Services.
