Rules

Foglight for Container Management allows you to create flexible rules that can be applied to complex interrelated data from multiple sources within your clusters. You can associate several different actions with a rule, configure a rule so that it does not fire repeatedly, and associate a rule with schedules to define when it should be evaluated or not.

Different types of data can be used in rules, including registry variables, raw metrics, derived metrics, and topology object properties.

There are two types of rules: simple rules and multiple-severity rules. A simple rule has a single condition, and can be in one of three states: Fire, Undefined, or Normal. A multiple-severity rule can have up to five severity levels: Undefined, Fatal, Critical, Warning, and Normal.

Rule conditions are regularly evaluated against monitoring data (metrics and topology object properties collected from your monitored environment and transformed into a standard format). Therefore, the state of the rule can change if the data changes. For example, if a set of monitoring data matches a simple rule’s condition, the rule enters the Fire state. If the next set does not match the condition, the rule exits the Fire state and enters the Normal state.

Rules can be configured to send emails, pager messages, or perform other actions you define. Performance data can be viewed and analyzed using Foglight for Container Management.

Foglight for Container Management includes a number of predefined rules used to monitor the health of your container clusters. You are allowed to modify these rules to satisfy your different requirements. Many of these rules listed and described in this section have thresholds defined within them. Those thresholds include standard deviations, utilization percentages, and so on, are default values predefined in the registry.
