Logger Questions

Hi all,

I have configured a lot of HP_ILO sensors to monitor my HP DL380 server:

The configuration is the following:

- platform: hp_ilo
    host: 192.168.0.XX
    username: XXXXXXX
    password: XXXXXXXX

The problem is that i´m getting a lot of theese Warn:

2019-07-23 09:58:35 WARNING (MainThread) [homeassistant.components.sensor] Updating hp_ilo sensor took longer than the scheduled update interval 0:00:30

I’ve tryed to create a logger exception under the following namespaces without success

logger:
  default: warn
  logs:
    homeassistant.helpers.entity: error
    homeassistant.components.sensor.hp_ilo: error
    homeassistant.components.hp_ilo: error
    homeassistant.components.sensor.EntintyId: error

None of this has worked, ¿anyone knows how to skip theese logging?

Kind regards

It’s not coming from either of those log names. The phrases in the square brackets are what the logger filters off of. So you’d have to use this followed by a restart.

logger:
  default: warn
  logs:
    homeassistant.helpers.entity: error
    homeassistant.components.sensor: error

Personally, I use this because it will show python errors only. Usually the rest of the errors can be worked out without needing the logs. Like through config checker and the sorts.

logger:
  default: critical

I understand that if i set logger like this:

logger:
  default: warn
  logs:
    homeassistant.helpers.entity: error
    homeassistant.components.sensor: error

I would not receive warns from any sensor, the same with this one:

logger:
  default: critical

And I’m confortable with the rest of warning, they have helped me to solve and notice problems. I want to ignore only the ones coming from HP_ILO. It´s not critical info for me so it´s ok to take more time to refresh.

¿anyone has a clue if this is posibble?

petro · July 23, 2019, 12:06pm

It’s not possible because the way the filter works is based off the words inside the brackets. The section that is producing the warnings is: [homeassistant.components.sensor]. So the only way to remove them from the logs is to remove that section. The logging filter doesn’t search anything else, so this is literally your only option.

petro · July 23, 2019, 12:10pm

I’m not sure why you even want the warnings. They are almost always useless. Most components/integrations don’t even use that logging level.

McVillano · July 23, 2019, 12:17pm

I don´t agree that they are not usefull. I’ve used most of the time to trace components that don´t work properly.

I want all logs that are higher that INFO as i usually do. It’s a pitty the filter is done that way, i think it´s pretty normal to want certain level for a component but other for anotherone
