Soft checks

From CCMDB Wiki
Jump to navigation Jump to search

Some of our cross checks are implemented as "soft checks", where the collector can still send data even if a check is triggered. These are for scenarios where a trigger usually means that something went wrong, but there are scenarios where the entry is actually correct.

When multiple soft checks trigger, only one will be visible

One of the problems with our current implementation is that, if there is more than one triggered soft check, only one will be visible. This is because our original implementation relied on the idea that we only need to show one problem at a time, since that problem would have to be fixed, and when it gets fixed any other issue would then show up. Since the problem might never be fixed in the case of soft checks, only the last one checked would be visible.
