Probe timeout customization

[mlemmer]

Hello,

I am contacting you to ask whether it is possible to customize the probe timeout in order to avoid notifications in case of brief disconnections between the core and the probes. I have a probe behind an IPSEC VPN that experiences frequent flapping, and I would like to avoid these notifications without having to completely disable alerts.

I couldn’t find any variable related to this in the documentation.

Thank you in advance for your response.
Your product is really great

Best regards,
Michael

Talking to the devs, I "think" there's something, but it's not documented well and I don't have any personal notes.

Okay, talked to the devs and here's how to adjust the timeout.

So you have to edit "/etc/default/unimus-core" on the Remote Core.

Add:

Code: Select all

-Dunimus.core.tcp.connect-timeout=X

Where X is the timeout you want to use in seconds, default is 5.

If you enable debug logging for the Remote Core you should see this variable printed at the bottom of the file allowing you to verify that the configuration was applied
