Indicate Checks interdependence #507

Open elauria opened 7 years ago

elauria commented 7 years ago

As a ZMON User I want to be notified in the UI when a Check consumes/provides data being provided/consumed by another Check (i.e. via KairosDB), in order to be aware of possible implications when modifying Checks.

Given:

Besides dependency indication - another possibility is to still keep evaluating the check A, even though it has no alerts itself, but a dependent check B has active alerts. I don't know how complex and expensive such a transitive relation would be.

Given that Check A is written to collect some data And Check B is written to consume that data

When I update Check A Then I should see an indication that Check B could be affected (so that I don't mistakenly break Check B) and When all alerts are removed from Check A Then I should see an indication that Check B could be affected (so that Check B does not fail) (or checks shouldn't require alerts to fire?)
