GRMG: Inserting the Monitored URL into the Alert Text

By default, an alert for availability monitoring with GRMG or GRMG Lite does not include the monitored URL, but rather the HTTP status of the monitored URL. You can indirectly see the URL for which the alert has occurred by the scenario subtree in which the alert is shown.

However, you can also have the monitored URL displayed in the alert text. The auto-reaction method GRMG_URL_LOOKUP_AUTOREACTION is available to you for this purpose. If you assign this method to the node Status of the GRMG availability monitoring, this method performs the following steps if an alert occurs:

• The method creates a new monitoring object called GRMG Alerts with URLs in the GRMG monitoring context of the corresponding scenario.

• In this monitoring object, an alert is generated in the status attribute Alerts with GRMG URL; the alert text is the monitored URL.

• If you set the parameter COMPLETE_ALERTS in the method definition of GRMG_URL_LOOKUP_AUTOREACTION, the original alert (without the URL in the alert text) is automatically completed. This means that you can ensure that if a GRMG component is not available once, you also have only one active alert.
