Docker Monitoring - Single container to be alerted when exited

Products

• DX Unified Infrastructure Management (Nimsoft / UIM)

Issue/Introduction

How to configure docker_monitor probe to alert only on a single container when exited.

Environment

• Release: 9.1.0
• Component: UIM - DOCKER
• docker_monitor and template v1.50

Cause

• Not possible through MCS as of yet.

Resolution

Using the Admin Console allows you to monitor the Container Status (e.g., exit) for an individual container so you can generate an alarm when the container exits. MCS does not currently expose this same configuration option.
