VBTK::Wrapper::Vxprint - Veritas Volume Monitoring with 'vxprint'

  # If you like all the defaults, then there's no need to over-ride them.
  $o = new VBTK::Wrapper::Vxprint ();
  $vbObj = $o->addVBObj();

  VBTK::runAll;

This perl library is a front-end to the VBTK::Wrapper class. It supports the same public methods as the VBTK::Wrapper class, but with common defaults to simplify the setup of a 'vxprint' monitoring process.

The following methods are supported

$o = new VBTK::Wrapper::Vxprint (<parm1> => <val1>, <parm2> => <val2>, ...)

This method calls 'new VBTK::Wrapper' after defaulting the parameters to best monitor the 'vxprint' command. For a detailed description of the parameters, see VBTK::Wrapper. The defaults are as follows. If you like all the defaults then you don't have to pass in any parms.

Interval

    Interval => 600,

Execute

    Execute => 'vxprint -ht',

VBDetail

Show the exact data as returned by the vxprint command.

    VBDetail => [ '$data' ],

Timeout

    Timeout => 30,

TimeoutStatus

    TimeoutStatus => 'Fail',

DebugHeader

    DebugHeader => 'vxprint',

$vbObj = $o->addVBObj(<parm1> => <val1>, <parm2> => <val2>, ...)

This method calls VBTK::Wrapper::addVBObj after defaulting unspecified parameters to best monitor the 'vxprint' command. For a detailed description of the addVBObj parameters, see VBTK::Parser. The defaults are as follows. If you like all the defaults then you don't have to pass in any parms

VBObjName

Name the VBObject using the local host's name.

    VBObjName => ".$::HOST.vm.vxprint",

Rules

If we see the words error or fail in the output, then set the status to 'Failed'.

    Rules => {
         '$data =~ /error|fail/i' => 'Fail' },

StatusHistoryLimit

Limit to storing the last 30 status changes

    StatusHistoryLimit => 30,

ExpireAfter

    ExpireAfter => (<Interval> * 3) seconds

Description

    Description = qq(
        This object uses the 'vxprint' command to monitor the Veritas Volumes on
        $::HOST.  It will set the status to 'Warning' or 'Failed' based on the
        output of the 'vxprint' command. ),

BaselineDiffStatus

Set the status to 'Warning' if the returned text differs from the baseline.

    BaselineDiffStatus => 'Warn',
