Hi,
We are monitoring several network devices, which got quite a big variety of temperature ranges.
From the system description, we are able to identify a vendor and model.
In the past with 1.6, we had host tags defined, so with adding hosts, you had to choose a vendor and products, but now after cleaning up a lot of the old mess with the upgrade to 2.0, I would like to have a check-plugin (or whatever is best practice) to discover a host label.
So the core of that is kind of “if sysdescription is like “nexus 7k”, then create host label vendor:cisco, platform:nexus7k”.
With that I can do different temperature rules and make them conditional to host labels.
Now the big question: How? I cannot find anything in the developer guide.
Looking forward to your inputs
Chacko
