Hello Community,

I use Event Handler to realize remediation actions with others tools like Ansible, AWX or Ansible Tower.

I’ve seen on a customer platform a 20.10, that the downtime is not a state who blocked an event handler to run.

According to the documentation the downtime just skip the notification process.

Anyone can confirm me is normal or it’s a bug ?

What workaround could be put in place about that ?

Regards,

Greg

I can confirm that the downtime doesn’t stop the event handler, but you can workaround by adding to your event handler command some macros like $SERVICEDOWNTIME$ or $HOSTDOWNTIME$ (depend on what you set your downtime). If this value is 1 a downtime is set, if it’s 0 then no downtime is set.
So you can use it like that in the script that will be executed by the event handler

 if [[ $downtime_number -eq 0 ]]; then
           echo "no downtime set you can continue"
        else
            echo "a downtime is set do nothing"
        fi

hopes it answer your question, Have a nice day
