Hello,
I am working on queries that make use of the AlertStatus table (See: Issues getting the related node name/ID for each alert via SQL). However, for these alerts I need to be able to get the node caption for each alert. This table itself does not have a way to tie an alert to a node as such. However, I have found that depending on the alert's ObjectType I can then tie the alerts ActiveObject field to another table to get the actual NodeID. For example, if the ObjectType for an alert is Volume I can join the ActiveObject to Volumes.VolumeID, and in that join I can then make use of Volumes.NodeID.
However, I do not know all possibilities for the ObjectType field, and I grow tired of having to play bop-a-mole in scrambling to find the new ones as they happen. I had hoped to get a list of such ObjectTypes from official support, but they do not know the information and instead directed me to try and flag down a Product Manager here on Thwack.
Does anyone know of a way that I can find a list of all possibilities for ObjectType within the database / elsewhere in the software? If not, does anyone have a list of the ones that they know of? So far I've found APM: Application, APM: Component, Hardware Sensor, Interface, Multicast routing, Node, and Volume but I know there are others.
Any help is appreciated.
