Just a dropdown wouldn't help as you need to be able to
define "rules" per "type" (minor/major/critical)
Dirk.
Dirk,
Lets
take the disk space scenario, regular file server.
IF
Diskspace <5GB, Alert is minor
IF
Diskspace <3GB, Alert is major
IF
Diskspace <1GB, Alert is critical
I
know I could make 3 seperate alerts and then put minor, major and critcal in
the wording, but a quick to define variable in SA, or a dropdown box in the
alert field or check field would be the ideal situation.
I
hope that helps,
EZ
Let's use your diskspace as an
example.
In your request is this entry always "critical" when
down? Or does the level depend on the free space?
Dirk.
To the list,
While I am currently configuring SA to do monitoring of my systems
I have been asked if the alerts and the emails that it sends to my ops and
administrators can be customized so that say that Diskspace below 1G on a
drive would be labeled as Critical. ( I dont see it in the interface where
you can label an alert is like critical, minor, major, info etc etc) I
know I could put this in the text of the email to the administrators, to
show them what is critical and what isnt, it just woul dbe nice if you
could put in a defined variable in the message field (defined somewhere
within SA) that would tag the alert as critical, minor, major or
otherwise)
If anyone has done this or found out a good way via the software
accomplish this, I would be greatful for the insight.
As always, a great product absolutely loving the information I am
getting from it already....
