SYNOPSIS

	   use Monitoring::Availability;
	   my $ma = Monitoring::Availability->new();

DESCRIPTION

       This module calculates the availability for hosts/server from given logfiles.  The Logfileformat is Nagios/Icinga only.

REPOSITORY

	   Git: http://github.com/sni/Monitoring-Availability

CONSTRUCTOR

   new ( [ARGS] )
       Creates an "Monitoring::Availability" object. "new" takes at least the logs parameter.  Arguments are in key-value pairs.

       rpttimeperiod
	   report timeperiod. defines a timeperiod for this report. Will use 24x7 if not specified.

       assumeinitialstates
	   Assume the initial host/service state if none is found, default: yes

       assumestateretention
	   Assume state retention, default: yes

       assumestatesduringnotrunning
	   Assume state during times when the monitoring process is not running, default: yes

       includesoftstates
	   Include soft states in the calculation. Only hard states are used otherwise, default: no

       initialassumedhoststate
	   Assumed host state if none is found, default: unspecified

	   valid options are: unspecified, current, up, down and unreachable

       initialassumedservicestate
	   Assumed service state if none is found, default: unspecified

	   valid options are: unspecified, current, ok, warning, unknown and critical

       backtrack
	   Go back this amount of days to find initial states, default: 4

       showscheduleddowntime
	   Include downtimes in calculation, default: yes

       timeformat
	   Time format for the log output, default: %s

       verbose

       breakdown
	   Breakdown availability into 'months', 'weeks', 'days', 'none'

	   adds additional 'breakdown' hash to each result with broken down results

METHODS

	calculate()

       Calculate the availability

       start
	   Timestamp of start

       end Timestamp of end

       log_string
	   String containing the logs

       log_file

	    [{host => 'hostname', service => 'description'}, ...]

       initial_states
	   if you use the "current" option for initialassumedservicestate or initialassumedhoststate you have to provide the current states with a
	   hash like this:

	     {
	       hosts => {
		'hostname' => 'ok',
		...
	       },
	       services => {
		'hostname' => {
		    'description' =>  'warning',
		    ...
		 }

	   valid values for services are: ok, warning, unknown and critical

   get_condensed_logs
	get_condensed_logs()

       returns an array of hashes with the condensed log used for this report

   get_full_logs

       returns an array of hashes with the full log used for this report

BUGS

       Please report any bugs or feature requests to http://github.com/sni/Monitoring-Availability/issues <http://github.com/sni/Monitoring-
       Availability/issues>.

DEBUGING

       You may enable the debug mode by setting MONITORING_AVAILABILITY_DEBUG environment variable.  This will create a logfile:
       /tmp/Monitoring-Availability-Debug.log which gets overwritten with every calculation.  You will need the Log4Perl module to create this
       logfile.
