Is it possible to add a reason of outage to a historical alert? The alert is not present anymore but would be nice if I could add the reason going back, for recording purpose.
I don't think so, we are doing monthly outage report using in house script with manual efforts to put in outage reason and outage impact etc.
while I do the submit, is it possible to share how you do it manually?
Sure.
- we have a script run as a cron job to run at last day of each month.
- the script scan through the data/hist/*.conn files and pick out outage in that month.
- generate a csv file and send it to operations team.
- use excel to import csv file and adding outage reason and impact columns.
can the reason be viewed from within hobbit after you add the reason?
Nope but I hope so too. programming effort is needed to achieve this goal.
I think your questions can be submitted as RFE here,
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=128058&atid=710491
log it and hopefully someday someone will work on this RFE.
will do Thank your for this work.
