Opsview 6.8.x End of Support

With the release of Opsview 6.11.0 on February 2025, versions 6.8.x have reached their End of Support (EOS) status, according to our Support policy. This means that versions 6.8.x will no longer receive code fixes or security updates.

The documentation for version 6.8.9 and earlier versions will remain accessible for the time being, but it will no longer be updated or receive backports. We strongly recommend upgrading to the latest version of Opsview to ensure continued support and access to the latest features and security enhancements.

Status - Performance Metrics

URL: /rest/status/performancemetric

• GET —lists performance metrics with values and uoms.
• PUT, POST, DELETE — unimplemented.

Filtering URL parameters:

• hostgroupid — includes this host group in list. Can be repeated.
• hostgroupname — includes this host group in list. If the name is associated with more than one host group, all will be included in the response. Can be repeated.
• hostname — filter hosts by this host name. Can specify wildcards with %25. Can be repeated.
• hostid — filter hosts by this host id number. Can be repeated.
• servicename — filter services by this service check name. Can specify wildcards. Can be repeated.
• serviceid — filter services by this service id number. Can be repeated.
• metricname — filter metrics by this metric name. Can be repeated.
• hs — filter based on this host service. Of the form hostname::servicename. Can be repeated.
• hsm — filter based on this host service metric. Of the form hostname::servicename::metricname. Can be repeated.
• convertuom — if set, will convert performance data into base units. Eg, if value=1500 and uom=MB, with this flag set, will return value=1500000000 uom=bytes.

Other URL parameters:

• rows — limit results by this many rows. Note: if ordering by value, Opsview needs to check for all services before sorting, so we recommend you filter the list of performance metrics to have a smaller set first.
• order — you can suffix with _desc to sort descending. If not specified, the order is indeterminate. You can specify multiple values to have secondary sorting (except when sorting by value):
  • host
  • service
  • metric
  • value — If this is set, will order by value, then hostname, servicename. Values of empty strings will be sorted to the bottom of the list, regardless of ascending or descending.
• include_hostgroup — if set to 1, this will include the host group of the host that has the metric.
• include_hostip — if set to 1, this will include the host’s IP address that has the metric.

Example output Copied

It is possible for the value to be the empty string - this means the value is not available (for instance, if the service has a response without any performance data.
