The context object available from a FactBasedSLA has the following structure:

• sla (Object)

• threshold (Object)

• kpi (Object)

• fact (Object)

• value (Double)

• resource (String)

• violation (boolean)

• violationCount (int)

More info on the structure of these objects is available below. For example, if you have a LocalActionExecutor that executes a command when an SLA is breached, you can reference the variables above inside your command or arguments follows:

${context.fact.system.hostname}

${context.kpi.name}

StatisticalSLA

The context object available from a StatisticalSLA has the following structure:

• sla (Object)

• kpi (Object)

More info on the structure of these objects is available below. These variables can be accessed in the same way as above.
