Hi there,

I wrote a custom plugin under linux / py and it works pretty well. Metrics were collected by site24x7, perfect.

However, if I want to configure the threshold and want to get notified by email as soon as the limit has been reachhed. The pitty is, I can set the threshold lets say to the value 3 and this will be actually discovered by Site24x7, but the status turns just to in trouble, and... no notification will be send.

So, what do I need to do that a reached plugin threshold will trigger alarm notifications by email?

Here the code of my plugin.

1. #!/usr/bin/python

   import json

   METRICS_UNITS={'mailqueue':'Emails'}

   def metricCollector():

   data = {}

   data['plugin_version'] = 1

   data['heartbeat_required'] = 'true'

   data['mailqueue']=8

   data['units']=METRICS_UNITS

   return data

   if __name__ == '__main__':

   result = metricCollector()

   print(json.dumps(result, indent=4, sort_keys=True))

   　

Thank in advance

Markus
