Applications Availability Dashboards
Hi,
I have created a new Dashboard which shows Application Availability, it is based on Incident Rules - Host Reachables where I check URL's http response code. If application is up&running it returns 200.
The thing is that I have several 24x7 applications and others 5x12 so I have to handle different schedulers to run the Monitor (HostReachable). I have no problems with 24x7 applicacions because I set the scheduler to run from "Now" to "Forever" ever 1 minute, easy. The problems is how to set the scheduler to run from Monday to Friday from 08h to 20h, I don't find how to specify these requeriments.
Thanks in advance.
Alberto.
Thanks David. I have followed your advice.

Hi Alberto,
Someone can correct me if I am incorrect, but I think what you are attempting would be difficult and/or cumbersome using the Monitor measures and one or more BTs built around the measures it returns. However you can stream the contents of a BT to another process using the protobuf format and deal with the data externally. Another option might be to use BTs to build a dashboard and then further process an XML or CSV "report" created from the BT.
HTH,

Thanks David,
I have created two different downtime periods for the 12x5 Applications. The firts one from 20h-08h every Working Days and the second one the whole day of the weekends.
I have another question. When an incident is triggered I see the violation in the "Application Availability" Dashboard and I can see the incident as well in the Incident Dashboard. The thing is that I want to get the WebRequest, htt Response code, etc of every check done by the Monitor. Is it possible? I don't find how to do it. I mean I want a table with every request done by the MOnitor which shows URL, Start Time, http code, etc,
Thanks.
Alberto.
Hi Alberto,
Have you considered creating downtimes for the incidents in question? A downtime would prevent the incidents from firing even though the monitor is returning "bad results" during the expected time frame. While perhaps not ideal, this might meet your requirements.
HTH,
