Re: Groups & Notifiers (and speaking a bit to #1 below), I'm still
puzzling out the notification semantics for probe groups since I
didn't really get to play much until yesterday. It seems to be
"Group then Member Probe" independently, so if a notifier is
configured for both you get two messages (haven't installed the
final release yet but this was the behavior I saw in the last beta).
I'm not sure if that's a bug or not (should it be "Group || Member
Probe", "Group && Member Probe", or is the independent double-
notification behavior desirable in certain situations?)
The independence of the probe group notifiers vs. the member probes
is intentional. (We will, as always, consider feedback as to whether
that makes sense or not.)
It makes sense to me as a programmatically clean (& simple) way to
implement the "or" situation as long as the member probes have sane
names - It's just a bit confusing when the member probe's name is
"10.1.4.12" and you get a double notification about HTTP on www (the
group) & 10.1.4.12 (the member) because both are checked :)
