This ZenPack provides datasource ModelingMonitorDataSource to get information about modeling status. Zenpack check last modelling time of device and number of component classes, that must be presented in device. How it can be usefull:

• When you applied several modeler on device, and some of them wasn't create expected component classes, this will trigger an event. I my case, there was snmp plugin, that returns no data and failed events, until special vendor drivers was installed.
• When, for some reason, modelling was performing later than given time ago(in days)
