  • triggerName (mandatory) - the name of the trigger. This value must be unique for the specific role.
  • triggerExpression (mandatory) - a tsquery expression representing the trigger.
  • streamThreshold (optional) - the maximum number of streams that can satisfy a condition of a trigger before the condition fires. By default set to 0, and any stream returned will cause the condition to fire.
  • enabled (optional) - by default set to 'true'. If set to 'false' the trigger will not be evaluated.
For example, here is a JSON formatted trigger configured for a DataNode that fires if the DataNode has more than 1500 file-descriptors opened:
[{"triggerName": "sample-trigger",
  "triggerExpression": "IF (SELECT fd_open WHERE roleName=$ROLENAME and last(fd_open) > 1500) DO health:bad",
  "streamThreshold": 0, "enabled": "true"}]
Consult the trigger rules documentation for more details on how to write triggers using tsquery.The JSON format is evolving and may change in the future and as a result backward compatibility is not guaranteed between releases at this time.		 [] role_triggers true
