Description

The Status widget provides an overview of a host, a cluster or a check.
It will contain:

  • The name of the element
  • The Status and its Context (see Monitoring logic for more details)
  • Notifications sent (in case an element becomes WARNING or CRITICAL)
    • Notifications can be configured in Shinken Administration UI (see Notifications and Notifications Way chapters)
    • If some notification has been sent for this element, an envelope will be displayed with the number of notifications on the right.

 

 

  • Only for hosts, it displays also the number of checks, sorted per status.

Orange

Usage

If the status refers to an element, a click on the widget will open the Detailed View Panel providing details on the element (see the Host Detail View chapter).

  • For a host, clicking on one of the checks summary box, will directly open the Detail panel on the tab checks panel.
  • The list of checks will be filtered to only display checks matching this status.
  • To get the full list of checks, simply remove the filter ( See Checks Tab chapter).

Configuration

  1. Select a host or cluster name in the first list.
    • The total number of hosts and clusters will be displayed near "Select Host/Cluster" (1).
    • If no host selected yet, the list of available hosts will automatically opened.
    • You can search (filter) for a host name, typing into the input on top of the list (3).
    • You can clean the current selection by clicking on the swipe icon (2).

  2. Once your element is selected, if you want to monitor a specific check, you just have to select check name inside the second list.
