•
— Unknown - The probe is not able to accurately report metric or state data.
•
— Pending - The probe has been scheduled but has not yet run or is unable to run.
•
— OK - The probe is running successfully.
The Probe Status page contains tabs for each of the possible states, as well as one that
lists all probes. Each table contains columns indicating probe state, the monitored system,
the probes used, and the date and time the status was last updated.
In these tables, clicking the name of the system takes you to the
Probes tab of the System
Details page. Clicking the name of the probe takes you to its Current State page. From
there, you may edit the probe, delete it, and generate reports based upon its results.
6.9.1.1. Probe Status
⇒
Critical —
The probes that have crossed their CRITICAL thresholds or reached a critical status by
some other means. For instance, some probes become critical (rather than unknown) when
exceeding their timeout period.
6.9.1.2. Probe Status
⇒
Warning —
The probes that have crossed their WARNING thresholds.
6.9.1.3. Probe Status
⇒
Unknown —
The probes that cannot collect the metrics needed to determine probe state. Most but not
all probes enter an unknown state when exceeding their timeout period. This may mean
that the timeout period should be increased, or the connection cannot be established to the
monitored system.
It is also possible the probes’ configuration parameters are not correct and their data cannot
be found. Finally, this state may indicate that a software error has occurred.
6.9.1.4. Probe Status
⇒
Pending —
The probes whose data have not been received by RHN. This state is expected for a probe
that has just been scheduled but has not yet run. If all probes go into a pending state, your
monitoring infrastructure may be failing.
