Monitor Health Report

Supported Output Formats: Excel and CSV (comma separated values)

The monitor health report allows you to easily confirm that the ThirdEye monitoring systems are functioning properly. The report will take a device selection and show a single status row for each monitor associated with each device. Only “polling” monitors will be included.

This report works by checking if there is any data saved within the last polling period for the device. For example, an ICMP monitor with a polling period of 30 seconds is expected to have at least some data persisted every 30 seconds. For the purposes of this report, a “No Response” data point is still considered sufficient to be considered healthy. The purpose of this report is not to determine the health of the devices themselves, but rather that the ThirdEye monitoring sub-systems are running properly.

Data for push monitors like SNMP Trap and Agent-D syslog are not included. These monitors do not run on any regular schedule so the logic used by this report to determine health of the monitor is not applicable.

If there are no devices found based on the search criteria or if there are no applicable monitors in any of the selected devices, the report will be empty. In the case of an empty report, no email will be sent.

Columns

The following columns are included in the output of the Monitor Health Report:

Status : The health of the Monitor

Paused : The Monitor associated with the device is in the manual Paused state.

Maintenance Window : A Maintenance Window is active for this device, so no data is being collected.

Never : No data has ever been captured for this monitor.

Delayed : There appears to be a delay or the monitoring is not running normally.

OK : Monitoring is running normally.

IP Address : The IP Address of the monitored device.

Managed Network : The Managed Network that the monitored device is in.

Monitor : The name of the Monitor

Monitor Set : The name of the Monitor Set that this Monitor is a member of (or <None> if it is not in a Monitor Set)

Period : The time in seconds that this Monitor is configured to collect data.

Delay : In the case that the Monitor is not OK, this column will show the amount of seconds since the last collection attempt.

Last Captured : The last time that Monitor executed. This includes both successful and unsuccessful collection attempts.
