Appending alert notifications to a file using JON CLI

Solution Verified - Updated -

Environment

  • Red Hat JBoss Operations Network (ON) 3.3
  • ON CommandLine Interface (CLI) 3.3
  • With Alert notification CLI Script below:
var e = exporter
var alertDate = new Date()
e.setTarget( 'csv', '/home/a539836/JON-alerts.log' )
e.write( alertDate + ',' + alert.alertDefinition.name + ',' + alert.alertDefinition.description )

Issue

  • Is there a way to append to a central log file using CLI?

Resolution

Use java.io.FileWriter instead of JBoss ON CLI exporter method:

var alertDate = new Date()
var alertNew = ( alertDate + ',' + alert.alertDefinition.name + ',' + alert.alertDefinition.description )
var filename= "/home/a539836/JON-alerts.log";
    var fw = new java.io.FileWriter(filename,true);
    fw.write(alertNew);
    fw.close();
