I've tested it with the bbcombotest.cfg like
AtlasLustre.lustre-atlas = (tcx040.lustre\-atlas + tcx060.lustre\-atlas + tcx080.lustre\-atlas + tcx120.lustre\-atlas ) >= 4
This Alarm works of course, but i've got only this alert-message
Red Mon Nov 29 14:37:07 2010
(tcx040.lustre\-atlas+tcx060.lustre\-atlas+tcx080.lustre\-atlas+tcx120.lustre\-atlas)>=4 = (1+1+1+1)>=4 = 0 &green tcx040.lustre-atlas &green tcx060.lustre-atlas &green tcx080.lustre-atlas &red tcx120.lustre-atlas
Without the additional informations of all user-directory and there size, and thats logical of course .. but didn't solve my problem :-(
I'd use a script to handle the alerting in that case. You can grab the current status-data from Xymon using the bb 'hobbitdlog' command, so you can include those data in your alert message. See http://www.xymon.com/xymon/help/xymon-alerts.html for details on alert scripts.
Something like this - completely untested:
#!/bin/sh
$BBALPHAMSG contains the alert message text. Save it to
a file, then scan it for lines beginning with "&red" to get
the problem hosts. The grab the log-status for these hosts
and append it to the alert message. Finally, send the
alert.
echo "$BBALPHAMSG" >/tmp/alert.txt
egrep '^&red|^&yellow' /tmp/alert.txt | while read L
do
LOGID=echo $L | awk '{print $2}' # Get the host.status ID
Append the problem details to the alert text
echo "$LOGID details" >>/tmp/alert.txt $BB $BBDISP "hobbitdlog $LOGID" >>/tmp/alert.txt done
Send out the alert
mail -s "Lustre filesystem $BBCOLORLEVEL alert" $RCPT </tmp/alert.txt exit 0
In hobbit-alerts.cfg, use
HOST=AtlasLustre TEST=lustre-atlas SCRIPT /usr/local/bin/lustrealert.sh admin at foo.com
