I have updated the Thold plugin to v0.2.2. This version adds the ability to disable a Threshold. This option was sorely lacking for people who need to work on a host, but don't want the host to alert every few minutes that it is down. Disabling the "host" will automatically disable all the thresholds for that host, and vice-versa.

I have now released v0.2.7 of the Thold Plugin. Here is the changelog.

* Fixes for "are you sure you meant month 899" errors
* Fixes for table tholdset being empty causes poller to not function
* Resolved issue with Base URL auto generation pointing to the plugin directory
* Code Cleanup of Threshold Management Page
* "Instructions" rewording on Threshold Management Page
* Can now select multiple Thresholds to delete
* Orphan thresholds are now cleaned up automatically
* Fixed Guest account access to View Thresholds

Hi Jimmy,

Thats great. Do we need to uninstall thold tables or just replace the

code.

Thanks,

Farhan

Just replace the file as there have been no database changes.

dear jimmy,

i was update my thold with version 0.3.0, but why View Thresholds is disable.
what should i do to enable that feature ??

rgds

whyou

If I had to take a guess, I would say that you either don't have any thresholds setup (unlikely) or you checked this box in the Settings.

So, I installed this plugin back in August, and just now am getting around to this ;) It works that good ;)

The problem is with emailing alerts from thold...

I use SMTP... The reason is...

If I use phpmail() or sendmail, only host down errors will show up in my mail box. If I use SMPT I no longer get host down notices from cacti, but now I get thold device over/under thresh-hold messages.

I'm trying to figure out what do I need to do to get messages for host down and from thold device above/below thresh-hold messages?

Thanks!

Odd.... as both functions use the same exact function to send the mail. I will look into it further.

Just FYI ;)

On a whim, I thought maybe it would have been corrected with some upgrades... So I moved up to the "i" release, re-installed the plugins arch. and plugins...

Now it works flawlessly... Go figure ;)

Thanks anyhow, you've made a great product, and our company looks forward to donating to this and cacti's causes.

Thanks!

Well, good news is that I figured out what the root cause of this issue was...

When using phpmail/sendmail, spamassassin is picking up the emails as spam for the following reasons:



This could of course be resolved at the code level of the thold script, I'm just not sure where to look and don't really care to. Instead I whitelisted myself ;)

But, if you should be so inspired to fix them, or even point me in the right direction and I'll fix them and send you the patch ;)

If:

0.8 EXTRA_MPART_TYPE Header has extraneous Content-type:...type= entry

and

1.2 BLANK_LINES_70_80 BODY: Message body has 70-80% blank lines

Is fixed, problem will be resolved. Adjusting those image names is not really worth it.

Cheers!

Hi,

We have just implemented the Thold plugin within Cacti. The issue we have is we are using this to monitor printer toners for various printers.

We can get this working exactly how we want it with one exception. Every polling cycle (5 minutes) it polls the printer and detects the level of the toner is below our threshold. It then emails our vendor to advise. We have changed the re-alert setting from 12 - 999 however this means every 3 days or so they get an email and then send toner even though they have just sent it 3 days earlier. We have set this setting to "0" as well hoping this will not re-alert at all.

My questions is this:

How do we set this up so it alerts one time and then ignores the rest?

Thanks.
How can we set the

I just added a fix for this to SVN, you should be able to set it to 0 in the next release.
