Scott hi, I know it does not sound logic however I do need to set the row count to 1 in case row count returns 0 , can you show how to add that case clause and dummy line in my below code ?
SELECT a.eventuei AS _eventuei, a.nodeid AS _nodeid, a.ipaddr AS _ipaddr, now() AS _ts FROM events a WHERE a.eventuei='uei.opennms.org/comns/backup-success-trap' AND (eventcreatetime > now() - interval '10 minutes') Thanks !!!!
