habit

Watch: habit

watch.habit raises when a value leaves its habit for this host, at this hour and on this day of the week: here, the number of processes of a Linux.

How to read it

• The watch learns the habit of the measure first. Until it knows it, it raises nothing and says it is learning.
• 'sensitivity' => 'low': low, normal (the default) or high, how far from the habit the value must go.
• 'floor' => 50: under this value, it never raises, whatever the habit; it keeps quiet hours from raising for nothing.
• habit only raises a warning, never critical.
• 'help' => …: the sentence the administrator reads under the title of the watch. Optional for every kind but custom.

To adapt it

• It suits what follows the rhythm of the users: traffic, requests, sessions, a queue.
