I am trying to get the name and ip of a device class and have the report display an OK or a FAIL if there are any warning/critical/error events. So far I have

getId

getManageIp

getEventCount

for columns. However I get a expression error (even though I have valid python code in the query section) . Is there anyone that can help me out with this ?

Thanks

Re: Help creating custom reports

Here is my query - I do not see what is wrong with it:

if EventCount = 0:
print 'OK'
else
print 'FAIL'

Re: Help creating custom reports

Need another equals sign and colon I think

if EventCount == 0:
print 'OK'
else:
print 'FAIL'

Re: Help creating custom reports

I still can't get the report to work, after that change:

Query error: Python expression error: invalid syntax (PythonExpr, line 1)

Re: Help creating custom reports

All I really want to do is graph an EventClass and show the Event count next to to the device ID. Any help is appreciated.

Re: Help creating custom reports

Bad news is you can't do what you whant by custom report, or it so complicated. But good news it simply in programming mode. in files print screen and zenpack. I insistently suggest indtall zenpack on test zenoss machine, may be bugy. Also not hard to add filter like in standart .Interface Utilization report.
See more examples in zenoss/Products/ZenReports/

Fill free ask me any questions.

Re: Help creating custom reports

Hi,

I didn't quite understand your reply. I did download your zenpack, so basically the only logic I want to apply to my report is:

if evt.eventClass= "/Some/Class"

Status = "OK"

else:

Status = "FAIL"

It's ridiculously difficult.

Re: Help creating custom reports

if evt.eventClass("/Some/Status") >= 1

Status = "OK"

else:

Status = "FAIL"

Still does not work.

Re: Help creating custom reports

I think I am a step in the right direction now, I used getStatus for the Sort Sense, now I need a simply query to display a OK or FAIL if the status is >1 .
