"OK" events are not processed by handlers?. Any idea.

Sensu Classic (EOL)
1

I am trying to use sensu for live monitoring. I have few issues, those are

  1. Not all events are handled by sensu handlers. “OK” events are not processed by handlers?. Any idea. I have pipe handler to print check_results, but pipe handlers are getting executed only for warning and critical events not for “OK” events.

  2. How to verify handlers are executed properly or not. I have “email” handler. How do I verify that handler is processed successfully or not. Any logs for that?.

  1. Also, I am trying sensu dashboard (trial), couldn’t see live graph in sensu dashboard?. (See the attachment). Any help is appreciated.

  1. This is correct. Most people don’t want OK emails constantly.
    If you need a handler to get every event, set metric: true

https://sensuapp.org/docs/0.23/guides/getting-started/intro-to-checks.html#create-a-metric-collection-check

(but do this carefully because it can get expensive for a server to run a command on every event)

  1. Handler processing is done by the sensu server, logs end up in /var/log/sensu/sensu-server.log

Thank you, Kyle Anderson. Will try this way.
