>From the log I don't see any of the SMTP alerts. And both should work the same way.
dirk. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Gregg Nicholas Sent: Wed Jun 25 10:54 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [SA-list] perfmon cpu utilization check I've been looking at the log, and I'm wondering if I might've left out a key piece of information. After you gave me the tip about changing the alert to only send after multiple, consecutive 'down' events, I've gotten far fewer false alerts. I'm afraid that I'm guilty of making an assumption. I'd set two alerts, one for SMTP and one for SOUND. I'd set them both for the same number of 'down' events. When I heard the sound, I assumed that the SMTP alert was also firing. As I look at the log, it would seem that the SMTP alert is correctly counting the down events and resetting the counter when CPU utilization is normal. Is it possible that the SOUND alerts aren't working right? Have I misunderstood how multiple alert items work? My SMTP alert is currently specified as "when 2 times down and then every 10 cycles - and when back up too" My sound alert is currently specified as "when 2 times down and then every 1 cycle" We're checking it once a minute Wednesday, June 25, 2003 11:05:34 Perfmon (Processor,% Processor Time,0) down Wednesday, June 25, 2003 11:05:34 Perfmon (Processor,% Processor Time,0) down Wednesday, June 25, 2003 11:05:34 Playing a sound Wednesday, June 25, 2003 11:08:47 Perfmon (Processor,% Processor Time,0) down Wednesday, June 25, 2003 11:10:56 Perfmon (Processor,% Processor Time,0) down Wednesday, June 25, 2003 11:10:57 Perfmon (Processor,% Processor Time,0) down Wednesday, June 25, 2003 11:10:57 Playing a sound Wednesday, June 25, 2003 11:30:12 Perfmon (Processor,% Processor Time,0) down Wednesday, June 25, 2003 11:30:12 Perfmon (Processor,% Processor Time,0) down Wednesday, June 25, 2003 11:30:12 Playing a sound Wednesday, June 25, 2003 11:46:32 Perfmon (Processor,% Processor Time,0) down Wednesday, June 25, 2003 11:46:33 Perfmon (Processor,% Processor Time,0) down Wednesday, June 25, 2003 11:46:33 Playing a sound Wednesday, June 25, 2003 11:49:45 Perfmon (Processor,% Processor Time,0) down Wednesday, June 25, 2003 11:49:45 Perfmon (Processor,% Processor Time,0) down Wednesday, June 25, 2003 11:49:45 Playing a sound Wednesday, June 25, 2003 12:04:44 Perfmon (Processor,% Processor Time,0) down Wednesday, June 25, 2003 12:04:44 Perfmon (Processor,% Processor Time,0) down Wednesday, June 25, 2003 12:04:44 Playing a sound Wednesday, June 25, 2003 12:35:32 Perfmon (Processor,% Processor Time,0) down Wednesday, June 25, 2003 12:35:33 Perfmon (Processor,% Processor Time,0) down Wednesday, June 25, 2003 12:35:33 Playing a sound Wednesday, June 25, 2003 12:36:38 Perfmon (Processor,% Processor Time,0) down Wednesday, June 25, 2003 12:36:38 Playing a sound Wednesday, June 25, 2003 13:58:30 Perfmon (Processor,% Processor Time,0) down Wednesday, June 25, 2003 13:58:30 Perfmon (Processor,% Processor Time,0) down Wednesday, June 25, 2003 13:58:30 Playing a sound Wednesday, June 25, 2003 14:01:46 Perfmon (Processor,% Processor Time,0) down Wednesday, June 25, 2003 14:01:46 Perfmon (Processor,% Processor Time,0) down Wednesday, June 25, 2003 14:01:46 Playing a sound Wednesday, June 25, 2003 14:13:28 Perfmon (Processor,% Processor Time,0) down Wednesday, June 25, 2003 14:13:28 Perfmon (Processor,% Processor Time,0) down Wednesday, June 25, 2003 14:13:28 Playing a sound Wednesday, June 25, 2003 14:21:59 Perfmon (Processor,% Processor Time,0) down Wednesday, June 25, 2003 14:22:00 Perfmon (Processor,% Processor Time,0) down Wednesday, June 25, 2003 14:22:00 Playing a sound Wednesday, June 25, 2003 14:27:22 Perfmon (Processor,% Processor Time,0) down Wednesday, June 25, 2003 14:27:22 Perfmon (Processor,% Processor Time,0) down Wednesday, June 25, 2003 14:27:22 Playing a sound Wednesday, June 25, 2003 14:50:57 Perfmon (Processor,% Processor Time,0) down Wednesday, June 25, 2003 14:50:57 Perfmon (Processor,% Processor Time,0) down Wednesday, June 25, 2003 14:50:57 Playing a sound Wednesday, June 25, 2003 15:41:58 Perfmon (Processor,% Processor Time,0) down Wednesday, June 25, 2003 15:41:58 Perfmon (Processor,% Processor Time,0) down Wednesday, June 25, 2003 15:41:58 Playing a sound Wednesday, June 25, 2003 16:04:22 Perfmon (Processor,% Processor Time,0) down Wednesday, June 25, 2003 16:04:22 Perfmon (Processor,% Processor Time,0) down Wednesday, June 25, 2003 16:04:22 Playing a sound Wednesday, June 25, 2003 16:12:53 Perfmon (Processor,% Processor Time,0) down Wednesday, June 25, 2003 16:12:54 Perfmon (Processor,% Processor Time,0) down Wednesday, June 25, 2003 16:12:54 Playing a sound Wednesday, June 25, 2003 16:37:20 Perfmon (Processor,% Processor Time,0) down Wednesday, June 25, 2003 16:37:20 Perfmon (Processor,% Processor Time,0) down Wednesday, June 25, 2003 16:37:20 Playing a sound To unsubscribe from a list, send a mail message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] With the following in the body of the message: unsubscribe SAlive To unsubscribe from a list, send a mail message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] With the following in the body of the message: unsubscribe SAlive
