Hello Zenoss sapiens, I now venturing this complex side of Zenoss and got this problem currently on event managements, mostly on events correlation and how I can automate tasks when specified events coming in.
Problem example: Currently monitoring several servers running on dynamic ips using mostly Zenplugins and COMMAND of course. Therefore I monitor devices based on their dynamic dns name. Whenever the servers changing it's IP (dhcp from ISP), Zenoss Event will show (for any particular server) summary from /Status/Ping such as "ip 212.32.56.5 is down" Manual intervention: Acknowledge the Event and push it to History, Go to Device, Reset IP and remodel the device. It is not so convenient to do it that way if you have hundreds of device to monitor. Automated theory: I wonder if I can make Zenoss continuously ping the domain name/ or every 5 minutes and when got positive ping reply,will issue events that can clear up the Down message and push it to history i.e. no more annoying red color message anymore. I wonder how to make that happen with Zenoss? I read some stuff, and also the Maintenance Windows thingy but not really understand on what I should do first..
