[opennms-discuss] need an tip/hint for configuration Groups

[Stefan Mikuszeit]

Hello all,

how i can configure a Group/Role that becomes only Messages when Server A/B down is, but not when Server C down is ?


like this:
Group-switch (members: switchadmin1, switchadmin2)
Group-windows (members: winadmin1, winadmin2)

if now errors comes from the Group-switch nodes only the members of this group will become the error messages.

Regards
Stefan Mikuszeit

Have you created OpenNMS categories for these groups?

David,

Trying to understand this myself. It could be handy to route
notifications based on categories. Are you saying you can use the
rule in notifications.xml to use something like:

<notification>
<notification name="nodeDown-Core" ... >
<rule>(categoryName LIKE "CoreRouters")</rule>
<destinationPath>Email-Network/Engineering</destinationPath>
</notification>

<rule>(categoryName LIKE "Routers")</rule>
<destinationPath>Email-HelpDesk</destinationPath>

<rule>(categoryName LIKE "Switches")</rule>
<destinationPath>Email-LANAdmins</destinationPath>

etc..

Pulled categoryName out of the schema.

Cheers-
Ken
