Email warnings when Velocity feed fails

[DrewDowling]

Is there any way to configure email warnings when a Velocity feed fails? We have a HTTP poller feed and would like email warnings if the source becomes unavailable. Is this something we can configure?

The email warnings we get when a feed exceeds it 25KB limit is helpful. We would ideally like something like this if the HTTP poller get request fails.

Glad it helped

Good Morning, 

   Since the June update, I have had a couple of instances of the RTA losing its connection to the Feed. Unfortunately, to date, this has not been noticed until well after log entries have expired, as when I go to look at the logs for any period/type, they are always empty.   So I don't see how I can open a Support case at this time. 

     My question is can you script look at the metrics for the RTA?  I think if I could generate an alert when they show zero activity or vary significantly from an expected norm?

    Thanks.

Well that's concerning. My script might work in your case.

This is typical output that a API returns for feed..metrics.items() If you know there should be features moving through the analytic and all your featurerate values are 0 then you could generate an alert.

In our case featurerate= 0 is the norm that we expect.
