Re: Alert report creation

You won't get much more out of adding in the nodes/interface tables. AlertLog.ObjectName takes care of that for you.

for reference, this shows all active alerts and joins multiple tables to end up with about the same results:

SELECT    AL.LOGDATETIME AS 'TIMESTAMP', AD.ALERTNAME, AL.OBJECTTYPE, N.CAPTION AS 'NODE', 'NULL' AS 'INTERFACE'
FROM ALERTLOG AL
JOIN ALERTDEFINITIONS AD ON AL.ALERTDEFID=AD.ALERTDEFID
JOIN NODES N ON AL.OBJECTID = N.NODEID
JOIN ALERTSTATUS A ON AL.ALERTDEFID=A.ALERTDEFID
WHERE A.ACKNOWLEDGED = 0
AND AL.MESSAGE = 'ALERT TRIGGERED'

UNION

SELECT
    AL.LOGDATETIME AS 'TIMESTAMP', AD.ALERTNAME, AL.OBJECTTYPE, 'NULL' AS 'NODE', I.CAPTION AS 'INTERFACE'
FROM ALERTLOG AL
JOIN ALERTDEFINITIONS AD ON AL.ALERTDEFID=AD.ALERTDEFID
JOIN INTERFACES I ON AL.OBJECTID = I.INTERFACEID
JOIN ALERTSTATUS A ON AL.ALERTDEFID=A.ALERTDEFID
WHERE A.ACKNOWLEDGED = 0
AND AL.MESSAGE = 'ALERT TRIGGERED'

ORDER BY TIMESTAMP DESC
