OP5 Monitor Integration

OP5 Monitor is a comprehensive monitoring solution designed for all sizes of IT environments. This type of software is commonly used in Network Operations Centers (NOCs) by many companies to monitor servers, switches and other hardware.

This integration enables the export of values in realtime from the platform to OP5 Monitor. It can automatically add hosts and services, with all values sent to Monitor as passive checks.

Configuration

The integration is configured for objects in the platform using meta-data. The following table outlines the desired keys for the integration to function properly.

The integration will find devices on all installations it has access to in the platform.

Object	Key	Type	Description
Device	`monitor.host`	String	Name used in Monitor when added, defaults to device name.
Device	`monitor.template`	String	Name of the host template to use in Monitor.
Function	`monitor.exported`	Boolean	Determines whether this function is included in the monitor integration.
Function	`monitor.thresholds`	String	Set up thresholds for the passive check, see details below.
Function	`monitor.service`	String	Name used in monitor when added, defaults to function name.

Thresholds

Thresholds can be created and combined using the following operators:

Operator	Description
`-w`	The following is conditions for Warning
`-c`	The following is conditions for Critical
`<`	Less than
`>`	Bigger than
`!` / `!=`	Not equal to
`=` / `==`	Equal
`<=`	Less than or equal to
`=>`	Equal to or more than
