Notify about health state
=========================

[⬅️ Go back to main README](../README.md)

> ℹ️ **Info**: This script can not be used on its own but requires the base
> installation. See [main README](../README.md) for details.

Description
-----------

This script is run from scheduler periodically, sending notification on
health related events:

* high CPU utilization
* low available free RAM
* voltage jumps up or down more than configured threshold
* voltage drops below hard lower limit
* power supply failed or recovered
* temperature is above or below threshold

Note that bad initial state will not trigger an event.

Monitoring CPU utilization and available free RAM works on all devices.
Other than that only sensors available in hardware can be checked. See what
your hardware supports:

    /system/health/print;

### Sample notifications

#### CPU utilization

![check-health notification cpu utilization high](check-health.d/notification-01-cpu-utilization-high.avif)  
![check-health notification cpu utilization ok](check-health.d/notification-02-cpu-utilization-ok.avif)

#### Available free RAM

![check-health notification free ram low](check-health.d/notification-03-free-ram-low.avif)  
![check-health notification free ram ok](check-health.d/notification-04-free-ram-ok.avif)

#### Voltage

![check-health notification voltage](check-health.d/notification-05-voltage.avif)

#### Temperature

![check-health notification temperature high](check-health.d/notification-06-temperature-high.avif)  
![check-health notification temperature ok](check-health.d/notification-07-temperature-ok.avif)

#### PSU state

![check-health notification psu fail](check-health.d/notification-08-psu-fail.avif)  
![check-health notification psu ok](check-health.d/notification-09-psu-ok.avif)

Requirements and installation
-----------------------------

Just install the script and create a scheduler:

    $ScriptInstallUpdate check-health;
    /system/scheduler/add interval=1m name=check-health on-event="/system/script/run check-health;" start-time=startup;

Configuration
-------------

The configuration goes to `global-config-overlay`, these are the parameters:

* `CheckHealthTemperature`: an array specifying temperature thresholds for sensors
* `CheckHealthVoltageLow`: value (in volt*10) giving a hard lower limit
* `CheckHealthVoltagePercent`: percentage value to trigger voltage jumps

Also notification settings are required for
[e-mail](mod/notification-email.md),
[matrix](mod/notification-matrix.md) and/or
[telegram](mod/notification-telegram.md).
