[Orca-users] Alert Facility

[Cockcroft, Adrian]

Orca on Solaris is based on the SE toolkit, which means that you could
either run the virtual_adrian.se script alongside orcallator.se or you
could modify orcallator.se to take some action when a rule evaluates to
red/black. The rule eval code is in both monitors, and virtual_adrian.se
has some code to send an email or you could use the syslog facility. The
rule code thresholds are configurable using environment variables in the
startup script.

 

That's at a per-machine level. There is no central alerting in the Orca
server itself.

 

Take a look in /opt/RICHPse/examples and there is some discussion in my
blog

archives at
http://perfcap.blogspot.com/2005/10/sunworld-columns-at-itworld.html and
in other posts...

 

Hope this helps
Adrian

Biji --

Nope, sorry, there's no way currently to set up Orca to do EM functions,
like notifications on certain thresholds.  Right now, it's used mostly
for performance tracking and other metrics.  You could feasibly write
your own script to monitor the data files that Orca uses that looks for
anomalies as you define, and reports on them as you see fit.  The raw
data files are flatfiles with a very straightforward format, so parsing
them should be easy.

Hello All,

 

Does ORCA supports facility of trigger alerts through mail / page when
it exceeds thresholds. If it supports please let me know how to setup
this.

 

Thanks
