Module: check_mk Branch: master Commit: 9df0b1df9d5775c6a5af10e96f60b99c5796bfd3 URL: http://git.mathias-kettner.de/git/?p=check_mk.git;a=commit;h=9df0b1df9d5775… Author: Mathias Kettner <mk(a)mathias-kettner.de> Date: Thu Nov 21 16:31:27 2013 +0100 FIX Interface Checks: ignore invalid error counts while interface is down Some network devices report packet errors even when the interface is in down state. This caused unintended monitoring alerts. For that reason we now simply ignore all performance counters of an interface that is in the state down. --- .werks/283 | 11 ++++++----- ChangeLog | 2 +- 2 files changed, 7 insertions(+), 6 deletions(-) diff --git a/.werks/283 b/.werks/283 index 5c47ed9..b3df25c 100644 --- a/.werks/283 +++ b/.werks/283 @@ -1,11 +1,12 @@ -Title: Interface Checks: Counters are now skipped when interface is down +Title: Interface Checks: ignore invalid error counts while interface is down Level: 1 Component: checks Version: 1.2.3i7 Date: 1385029361 Class: fix -In most cases it was no problem to check the counter values, as they -are reset to zero for most devices.
