We want to monitor the iSCSI multipath status on our hosts. So we notice it when for example 1 path is down to the iSCSI LUN. oVirt notices this perfectly, as you can see this in the alerts/log: 2020-09-18 09:53:08,880+02 WARN [org.ovirt.engine.core.dal.dbbroker.auditloghandling.AuditLogDirector] (EE-ManagedScheduledExecutorService-engineScheduledThreadPool-Thread-86) [] EVENT_ID: FAULTY_MULTIPATHS_ON_HOST(11,500), Faulty multipath paths on host kvm001 on devices: [3600a0980383056645524502f414a726a] The thing is, parsing the log and then alert something is not very useful sometimes. Our use-case uses Nagios/Icinga(2) for example to monitor the oVirt setup. Is would be great if the API was exended with a call that returns the iSCSI Multipath status on that host. The following call gives iSCSI info now: /ovirt-engine/api/hosts/xxxx/storage It would be nice to extend this with available_paths: int for example. Then if paths > available_paths -> trigger alert in our monitoring.

We are past 4.5.0 feature freeze, please re-target.
no update for a while, didn't make it into 4.5, pending close
This sounds like a good idea but we didn't get to it for a while and are unlikely to get to it soon So I filed an issue on GitHub on that: https://github.com/oVirt/ovirt-engine/issues/366 Help from community would be appreciated
