Metric aggregation configuration reference
The configuration object passed to the metric aggregation scripted extension point defines what to aggregate, how to aggregate it, and where to publish the result. The parameters that apply depend on the aggregation mode.
Configuration parameters
| Parameter | Type | Applies to mode | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|---|
mode | String | Both | Required | Aggregation mode. One of hierarchy or flat. The mode determines how source resources are selected and where the calculated metric is published. See Metric aggregation modes. |
targetCIClass | String | Hierarchy | Required (hierarchy) | CMDB class of the parent or target CI that receives the calculated metric, for example cmdb_ci_baseband_unit. The aggregation traverses CMDB relationships downward from each target CI to collect the matching source CIs. |
sourceCIClass | String | Both | Required | CMDB class of the source CIs whose raw metric is aggregated, for example cmdb_ci_mobile_cell. |
sourceMetric | String | Both | Required | Name of the raw metric collected on the source CIs that is read as input to the aggregation. |
aggregate | String | Both | Required | Aggregate function applied to the source metric values. One of avg, sum, max, min, count, or p95. |
calculatedMetricName | String | Both | Required | Name of the calculated metric that the aggregation produces and publishes. |
unit | String | Both | Optional | Unit label applied to the calculated metric, for example Mbps. |
level | Integer | Hierarchy | Optional | Depth limit that bounds how far the CMDB traversal descends from each target CI. Prevents the traversal from following relationships beyond the resources you intend to aggregate. |
rangeStart | String | Flat | Optional | Start of a contiguous range of source resources identified by name, for example SIM010. Use with rangeEnd to select source CIs by range. |
rangeEnd | String | Flat | Optional | End of the contiguous range of source resources identified by name, for example SIM050. |
filters | Array | Flat | Optional | Field filters that restrict the source CIs to those meeting a condition. Each element is an object with field, operator, and value. See Filter object. |
anchorCiSysId | String | Flat | Required (flat) | The sys_id of the anchor CI that holds the calculated metric. In flat mode the result is not tied to an existing parent CI, so you specify an anchor CI to hold it. |
Filter object
Each element of the filters array selects source CIs that meet a single field condition.
| Property | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
field | String | Name of the field on the source CI to evaluate, for example operational_status. |
operator | String | Comparison operator applied to the field, for example =. |
value | String | Value the field is compared against, for example 1. |
