Hi all,
I have been trying to set up freshness checking for all my passive services. I have some 3k+ passive services that I need to check for freshness that all run at during different timeperiods. The problem I keep running into is that freshness checking keeps running outside a corresponding timeperiod.
I have tried to set a check_period in my services as well as apply a notification period but I still get alerts outside me set timeperiod. Is there something I am missing/configuring this incorrectly?
My configs are templated through chef but here is a sample of one service:
from timeperiods.conf
object TimePeriod "market_hours" {
import "legacy-timeperiod"
display_name = "9:30am - 4:00pm (M-F) [ET] TimePeriod"
ranges = {
"monday" = "09:30-16:00"
"tuesday" = "09:30-16:00"
"wednesday" = "09:30-16:00"
"thursday" = "09:30-16:00"
"friday" = "09:30-16:00"
}
}
from notifications.conf
apply Notification "freshness_check-market_hours-warnings" to Service{
command = "notify-service-by-pagerduty"
states = [ OK, Warning, Critical, Unknown ]
types = [ Problem, Acknowledgement, Recovery, Custom ]
period = "market_hours"
users = [ "fake" ]
assign where service.vars.passive_check_market_hours == true
}
from templates.conf
template Service "passive-service" {
check_interval = 1h
retry_interval = 1m
enable_active_checks = true
check_command = "passive"
vars.dummy_state = 3
vars.dummy_text = "No Passive Check Result Received."
}
from services.conf
apply Service "different timeperiods_market_hours_not_ops_market_hours" {
import "passive-service"
check_period = "market_hours"
assign where host.vars.different_timeperiods_market_hours_not_ops_market_hours == "true"
vars.warnings = false
vars.pager_not_ops_market_hours = true
vars.passive_check_market_hours = true
max_check_attempts = 1
}
Any input would be appreciated!
Best,
Vinay
