Alarm key SERVICE_DOWN_ => Function or operation argument is not an object

[Zebble]

alarm = FindAlarmByKeyRegex("SERVICE_DOWN_.*");

works for me, but only if there are alarms that have SERVICE_DOWN_.  If there aren't any, you'll get a "Function or operation argument is not an object" if you try to println alarm->message because alarm isn't an object.  Alarm would be set to NULL in this case, so best to check for this:

if (alarm != NULL)
  println alarm->message;

ok, thanks.

Sorry for my inexperience with NXSL

But, I think this is not the right way...

a_key = %("NODE_DOWN_.*","SERVICE_DOWN_.*","IF_DOWN_.*","IF_UNEXP_UP_.*","BAD_NETMASK_.*","SCRIPT_ERR_.*","DCI_STATUS_.*","DC_THRESHOLD_.*","DCTTHR_.*","SYS_THREAD_HANG_.*","MAINTENANCE_MODE_.*","AGENT_UNREACHABLE_.*","SNMP_UNREACHABLE_.*","SYS_LDAP_SYNC_ERROR_.*","SYS_AGENT_LOG_PROBLEM_.*","SYS_AGENT_LOCAL_DATABASE_PROBLEM_.*","MAC_ADDRESS_CHANGED_.*","BAD_NETMASK_.*","ROUTING_LOOP_.*","SW_PKG_.*");

for (i = 0; i < a_key->size; i++ )
{
	alarm = FindAlarmByKeyRegex(a_key[i]);
	if (alarm != NULL)
	{
		println  (alarm->key) . (alarm->message) . "\n";
	}
}

*** FINISHED ***

Result:

I have a lot of errors and "alarm->message" does not return all the information.
Do you know if it is possible to get about the same result in "Alarm Browser"?

Your script works without issue on my end.  I'm using 3.8.314.

I am also in the 3.8.314 version

The script in your example returns only one alarm for each key. E.g. if you have several node with NODE_DOWN alarm, only one will be returned.

Can you give some information on what you are trying to achieve as the final result?

Hi,

I'm trying to get the logs as displayed in the "Alarm Browser" window.
As I said, this may not be the right way to do it  :-[

I have now gone another way, exporting the alarms when they appear using the "Event Processing Policy" and an associated "Action".
But then I'll have to manage the acknowledgements myself ... etc...

Hi,

you can access all alarms via "Entire Network" or "Infrastructure Services" objects. FOr example, the following script will print all alarm messages:

for(a : FindObject(1)->alarms)
{
	println a->message;
}

Best regards,
Victor

hi,

Thank you, this has inspired me a lot!

Now I can display the id, name and message of each alarm.

for (n : GetAllNodes())
{
	for(a : n->alarms)
	{
		println n->id . "\t" . n->name . "\t" . a->message;
	}
}

But I don't know how to display the date ?

Thanks for your help.

[BigBlue]

oh!

I've got it:

		oldestAlarmTime = min(oldestAlarmTime, a->creationTime);
		println n->id . "\t" . n->name . "\t" . a->message . "\t" . strftime("%Y-%m-%d %H:%M", a->creationTime);

Thanks to all.
