We are going to be updating the metric definitions for three existing metrics in Inventory and Hosts:
CPU Usage
Network Inbound
Network Outbound
These are defined as 'inventory' metrics for Hosts and is commonly leveraged by both Inventory and Inventory alerting rules:
In Inventory
In Inventory Rules
Additionally, the Hosts UI has these metrics definitions defined too (but they are not defined in the same place in the code):
To avoid affecting existing rules customers already have, instead of changing the actual metric definitions - we'll create new metrics and refer to the old ones as 'legacy':
For example, for the new 'CPU usage' metric definition we will:
Update the Hosts UI to use this new one instead of the old one (we'll change the tooltips as well)
Update the Inventory & inventory alerts to refer to the existing 'CPU usage' metrics as 'CPU Usage (legacy)'
Add a new metric to Inventory and Inventory alerts called 'CPU Usage' which uses the new definition
Note Do you think we could have a heading in there somewhere that talks about 'legacy' metrics that we can link to from the UI? We'd like to be able to refer to this from the UI
