Dear All,
Is it possible to use databasetriggers and storedprocedures for sending statusupdates to xymon ?
Example:
Our DBA uses a database with status messages of his databases. Is it possible as soon as a record gets added to this message table a storedprocedure starts and forwards this message to xymon ?
Sure, but that is probably not necessary or even a good idea. Triggers rarely are. Just write an ext script that reads the table and sends any new messages to Xymon.
The only case I can think of that would justify use of a trigger is if you want to avoid the delay between the time that the record is added and the script picks it up. Then you can simply let the trigger call the ext script.
