Advice reqeusted to migrate MSR from Bare Metal to Container

[CatmanV2]

@gwp1 Oh yes, I understand that. The challenge I have is that when the pulse ends the reset reaction is triggered, which is specifically what I was looking to avoid.

I currently have a use case where the Server room temperature goes too high (set) and fires a warning reaction. I want it to repeat that warning (pulse does that just fine) but when the temperature drops (reset) it runs another notification. (To say everything is fine)

If I pulse the output of the set to get the warning to repeat (which it does) then when the pulse ends, the rule is reset and the 'Everything is fine' notification is sent. Which I want to avoid as everything is not fine.

I can absolutely have two rules both of which 'set' and get around it that way, but I was trying to do it with one.

@catmanv2 If you use pulse you could create a local expression that is true when temperature is below threshold, otherwise false and in the reset reaction you only send the notification if the expression is true.

@crille ahhh, now that sounds like a good learning exercise! Thanks

And it was. Didn't want to start coding but hey

<exit>

And I assume I can use this for the other idiot question I was going to ask: Can I change the reactions as an ELSE type thing.

So I'm assuming I can have two groups in the set and reset reactions with mutually exclusive conditions

Thanks!

Yes, you can have multiple groups in both set reaction and reset reaction, if conditions is not met in a group but in another group those actions will fire instead.

@crille as I have just found out! Thanks

Also don't forget that there's a "repeat...while" group available in reactions, which seems on reading the original problem statement to be a likely candidate for repeating a command or set commands until they are honored.

[CatmanV2]

@toggledbits thanks, I tried that but couldn't work out how to define the repeat cadence.

Use a delay action in the repeat group.

DOH

I didn't mention that because I had some issues/questions about it that I have not found time to test futher, so this is a heads up. I will try to find time to test more and create a new topic soon.
