I've been working on a plugin where I need to know the exact structure
of the status.log file, as in what each ;-delimited value stands for.
So I went into the code and found out, and I figured it would be a good
reference to share with the list. It could come in very handy for
debugging, plugin development, custom CGI's, etc. So here is a list of
what the status.log actually means. I attached it as a text file and
printed it out at the bottom of the email. If I have the time to write
a Perl function that can easily grab data from a line of the status log
(like representing the line as a hash), I'll email that to the list as well.
I noticed two fields that I'm curious about. There is a
failure_prediction_enabled setting for hosts and services. Is this
something that was going to be created but hasn't yet and the hook for
the status log is there, or is there any failure prediction occurring?
Also, the field that says if something is in downtime is called the
scheduled_downtime_depth. Can this be something other than 0 or 1? How
is downtime depth determined?
Thanks, and here is the list of values:
