Automation

Events flow through a processing policy that raises alarms, sends notifications and runs scripts. Everything is programmable in NXSL.

Event Processing Policy editor with a rule expanded

What it does

  • Event processing policy: match on source, event, severity and script, then act
  • Alarms with acknowledgement, resolution, sticky acknowledge and comments
  • Root cause correlation for downstream outages
  • Helpdesk integration: Jira, ServiceNow, Redmine and a generic REST connector
  • 25 notification channels: email, SMS, Telegram, Slack, Microsoft Teams, Matrix, XMPP, MQTT, webhooks
  • NXSL: a scripting language with full access to objects, metrics and the event stream
  • Scheduled tasks and server-side actions on any object
  • Business services with SLA calculation
  • Object automation: auto-bind, auto-apply templates, container membership by rule
  • Maintenance mode suppresses alarms on schedule
