multiple alert levels in dirscan probe

Products

• DX Unified Infrastructure Management (Nimsoft / UIM)

Issue/Introduction

We would like to trigger an alert in the dirscan probe if a file exceeds a certain size, but we want to have two thresholds.

For example:

File size over 500mb: send minor alert
File size over 1GB: send major alert

How can we achieve this?

Environment

DX UIM - Any Version

dirscan probe 3.20 or earlier

Resolution

Presently this is not possible without some level of customization outside of the dirscan probe itself.

For example, a NAS custom pre-processor script could intercept the message and set the message severity based on the contents.

This would be outside the scope of Broadcom Support to assist with.

Otherwise this represents a potential enhancement.
