perf-alert Plugin - Lots of Alerts but No Option to Exclude SR

kagbasi-ngc

MY ENVIRONMENT:

XCP-ng: 3 nodes running v8.3
XOA: v5.98.1 Build: 20241024 (air-gapped build)

Last Friday (February 7th) I enabled the perf-alert plugin and turned on all the options and accepted the defaults. This morning when I came into the lab, I had received about 11,000 email alerts. They were all pointing to the DVD drives SR on each host having hit the 80% threshold (see screenshot below).

So, I looked at the plugin configuration page and noticed that there was an option to exclude a SR. However, I noticed that none of the DVD drives were available to be selected for exclusion. This seems odd to me, so I wanted to bring it up for discussion to see if anybody had any input on how to handle this issue.

Getting this many alerts in such a short period of time, without a way to turn them off (without turning off the alerting altogether) doesn't seem like an acceptable solution.

Hi,

Your version is very outdated, it was fixed since then. Please open a support ticket to be assisted on how to update.

@kagbasi-ngc
There has been some discussions about the perf-alert plugin in the last months.
I think You might need an update of XOA
