A user asked how to set up an alert concerning the “Smart-X ControlUp Term License stack” with a trigger of 90% of the maximum available index. Dennis provided guidance to configure an alert if the licensed volume goes above the licensed volume using Splunk. The ControlUp version used is 8.6.0.192.

Hello, I would like to change the trigger of the alert concerning the “Smart-X ControlUp Term License stack”. I would like to receive a mail alert when 90% of my maximum available indexes is reached.
I connect to https://:8000/manage, I found the alert “admin_alert_license_volume_exceeded” that seems to be the one I want to configure but the search looks for the category “pool_over_quota” and I didn’t find the way to edit this category to 90% of the maximum allowed instead of waiting to reach the 100%…
Thank you.
[CONTROL UP 8.6.0.192]
Consider this provided as is.
How comfortable are you with Splunk and alerts? You might have to do some hard coding of your current license volume.
index=_internal source=license_usage type=RolloverSummary | bucket _time span=1d | eval MB_vol=b/1024/1024 | timechart span=1d sum(MB_vol) by pool
Will get you the indexed amount in megabytes.
You’d then have to set up an alert if that goes above whatever your licensed volume is.
Hello, thank you for your help. Try to use. But I’m newbie with Splunk and not so familiar with.
