Hello,
I'm in the process of upgrading from bb to hobbit. In BBI had written a few custom tests that would grep through the bb status logs for a group of hosts matching color purple, it would then report what it found and bb would send out an alert based on the results. This allowed me to monitor the status of our remote offices, if it went down I would receive a sms page.
Basically I want to receive one single alert if this remote office goes offline, not a page for every device. Is there a way to handle this natively in hobbit? I cannot do conn based testing.
I know I will not be able to use this, however, I started messing around with the conn tests and the route: flag within bb-hosts but I was unsuccessful with getting it to work in my test environment. The servers would not change to clear status if the gateway reported as red (down).
Thanks Greg
