Hi everybody,
I am currently looking for a possibility to determine the downstate of “CRITICAL” hosts via API requests.
Let’s say I have a request which returns a list of all hosts which host-alive-checks fail, is there a possibility to determine if they are scheduled for a downtime right now, e.g. by firing another request or querying an additional attribute?
I couldn’t find anything on this topic up to now…
Best regards
Daniel
If you query the host or service object, under attrs in the json you’ll see a value called downtime_depth. This is how many downtimes are applied to that object, so anything > 0 is what you would catch.
Actually, that’s just active/triggered downtimes. In order to fetch all downtimes scheduled for this specific host, you need to reverse the strategy with querying /v1/objects/downtimes with the host name as filter.
Cheers,
Michael
