A first test version of our new check check_netapp_events to monitor **the **ASUP logs is available upon request. Please get in contact with us directly , this check is not yet available for distrubution. The check is _not_part of our **check_netapp_pro **suite and in technical terms is completely independent. Our development goals where:
- detection of problems that could not be identified with previous checks
- detection of problems that could not be identified because of faulty configurations (forgotten check, forgotten instance, unsuitable regex for --include, …)
- redundant system in case of collector check failure (full store dir, incompatible Perl library, …)
Therefore this check was developed to be as easy and lightweight as possible:
- usage of the NetApp API for reading the logs
- option to filter by severity, source and text
- simple C binary without interpreter
- no temporary files such as store files
- low impact on the system load (especially of the monitoring system)
