    I've a situation where there is need to pre-process some alarms through lua

    So, there are 2 servers send same alarms from logmon several times a week since they handle the same application.

    Now I would like to suppress alarms from 1 server if there is a match on probe, subsystem and message.

    Need some suggestions and if someone has such an implementation can guide too.
    Other alternative are also welcome

    Hi,

     

    Something like this should work if i understood your need

    local prid = "logmon"
    local subsys = "1.1"
    local match = string.match
    local pattern = ".*Failed\sto\sget.*"
    local aoAlarm = alarm.get()

    if aoAlarm.prid == prid and aoAlarm.sid == subsys and match(aoAlarm.message, pattern) then
       action.close(aoAlarm.nimid)
    end

     

    Put this script on AO. And it should "close" any alarm that come and match these three conditions. You can test this script by executing the script yourself (just give a "nimid" in the alarm.get() ).

     

    If you want to dump complete hash use this

    local function tdump(t)
        local search = pairs;
        local sf = string.format;
        local sr = string.rep;
        local perf_type = type;
        local ts = tostring;
        local function dmp(t, l, k)
            if perf_type(t) == "table" then
                print(sf("%s%s:", sr(" ", l*2), ts(k)));
                for k, v in search(t) do
                    dmp(v, l+1, k);
                end
            else
                print(sf("%s%s:%s", sr(" ", l*2), ts(k), ts(t)));
            end
        end
        dmp(t, 1, "root");
    end

     

    And use it to dump the aoAlarm hash:

    tdump(aoAlarm)

     

    Best Regards,
