Checks view

Usage

The OpenSVC agent schedule and om node checks push checkers values from the nodes to the collector. Current implemented checks are:

fs_u
Filesystems usage percent.
fs_i
Filesystems inodes usage percent.
vg_u
Volume group usage percent.
mpath
Multipath valid path count (native multipath on Linux, HP-UX, Solaris, PowerPath).
raid
Raid hardware error count (MegaRaid, SmartArray).
fm
Fault Management. Server hardware error count (Solaris fmadm).
lag
Link aggregate error count (Linux bonding, Solaris).

More checks will be implemented depending on client needs.

Each check is validated against high and low threshold values. If the current check value is outside boundaries, the check raises a warning in the dashboard and the value and crossed threshold are highlighted red in the checks view.

A check without value update for more than 24 hours will have its update date highlighted red. These checks instances should not be trusted.

Dashboard notifications

  • Check value out of bounds
  • Check value not updated

Setting thresholds

Check types have default high and low threshold values. These values can be customized for each node and instance of the check or a threshold can be attached to a filterset.

Clicking a checker name opens a dialog to change the default value.

To change the threshold values of a set of check instances, check the corresponding rows in the table and click the Set low threshold or Set high threshold.
