Update Autom8 to apply threshold templates

[jmarshall28@gmail.com]

Is it possible to automate thold template application to interfaces? If not I would like to ask for a future autom8 feature such that the user would be the ability to select a threshold template to apply in autom8 for interfaces that pass that graph rule on a thold template per graph rule basis.

Currently, there is no interaction between both plugins. So this is a new feature request

It would greatly simplify large scale use of threshold detection. It doesn't even have to be that smart. Just for a given graph rule, have a drop down that allows you to select what threshold template to apply. Similar to the drop downs for the datay query and/or graph type.

Any idea when this could be added to Autom8?

Is there already some progress on this? I also need to be able to create rules for adding thresholds to graphs automatically.

If not, I will start writing something myself, just let me know.

I am currently making a plugin like Autom8, but for Data Items on Reportit reports. This is currently a separate plugin and I'm also planning to create something like this for Thold also.

Gandalf, one big question: Keep this as a separate plugin, or do you want me to integrate it completely into Autom8?

[Hipska]

Since we receive no answer, I created something myself.

With this plugin, you will be able to specify rules for DS to be added on reportit reports.

Awesome! Autom8 integration with thold has been on my wishlist for years (along with different threshold templates for different customers).

[Hipska]

Autom8Thold plugin will also be created, I will let know in this topic when it's there.

It's ready: http://docs.cacti.net/userplugin:autom8thold

Feel free to try it out and let me know if you want changes.

Hello
I've installed with success autom8reportit but i've got an error when i try to define the rules :
the field "field name" is empty, his only choice is "none"

and in front of the page i've got this text :

Warning: reset() [function.reset]: Passed variable is not an array or object in D:\www\cacti\plugins\autom8reportit\autom8_report_rules.php on line 373

Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in D:\www\cacti\plugins\autom8reportit\autom8_report_rules.php on line 376

in the file autom8_report_rules.php, the lines 365 to 385 are

Code: Select all

case AUTOM8_RULE_TYPE_REPORT_ACTION:
			$title = 'Create Report Data Source Rule';
			$tables = array(AUTOM8_RULE_TABLE_XML);
			$item_table = 'plugin_autom8_report_rule_items';
			$sql_and = '';
			$autom8_rule = db_fetch_row(sprintf('SELECT * FROM plugin_autom8_report_rules WHERE id = %d LIMIT 1;', $rule_id));
			$_fields_rule_item_edit = $fields_autom8_graph_rule_item_edit;
			$xml_array = get_data_query_array($autom8_rule['snmp_query_id']);
			reset($xml_array['fields']);
			$fields = array();
			if(sizeof($xml_array)) {
				foreach($xml_array['fields'] as $key => $value) {
					# ... work on all input fields
					if(isset($value['direction']) && (strtolower($value['direction']) == 'input')) {
						$fields[$key] = $key . ' - ' . $value['name'];
					}
				}
				$_fields_rule_item_edit['field']['array'] = $fields;
			}
			break;

I thinks there's an error in the code "reset($xml_array['fields']);"

thank you

That happens when no Data Query is defined in the rule settings.

I made a change in the code that fixes these PHP warnings: https://github.com/Super-Visions/cacti- ... ad12b631d9

I've just forget that in cacti, you have to save before each time you go in an other page. sorry

I'm testing this on a new 0.8.8b install with the latest thold, autom8 etc.

I've created a threshold template, and then a threshold rule... my graph rule creates the graphs (interface error counts for oper-up/ethernet interfaces), but I don't see any new thresholds. Do I need to apply that rule somewhere? The rule is enabled, and it looks OK. The list of affected interfaces is what I would expect, on the rules page...

[Hipska]

Howie: Is "Settings > Misc > Enable Autom8 Threshold creation" enabled?

You can test also by choosing action "Apply Autom8 Rules to Data Source(s)" on data sources page.

Same issue here, I applied the patch, activated the plugin, created a threshold rule but it will not trigger the creation of the thresholds. If you would like any information from my system I would be more than happy to supply it as I would love this feature to come to life!
