Hello,
I was wondering if there was a way to alarm if a certain output is
NOT seen after a certain amount of time.
For example, I have a logfile which lists transaction processing -
I want to alarm when nothing is written to that file for a
certain amount of time, or alternately, when either the string
"STATUS = 1" or "STATUS=0" hasn't appeared for a certain amount of
time.
hi Michael,
yes, the task you have described can be done quite easily. There is
a related example in the man page (see http://simple-evcorr.sourceforge.net/sec.pl.html#lbBA)
, but it can be modified for your purpose:
type=Calendar
time=* * * * *
desc=WAITING FOR STATUS
action=event %s
Thanks, Risto - that worked quite well.
One thing I noticed, using this method to try to detect when an input
isn't seen for a while, it seems since we're using the Calendar module
that the granularity is limited to a 60 second window. Is there a way
to determine if we've not seen an input in a shorter windows, say 2
seconds ?
