Good point - it's the actually the ALERTING want to suppress, not the DOWN status as such. The option to "alert on errors/downs/both" would be best applied to the alerts rather than the check itsself. We have a number of errors that we show on the web output but don't send an alert for.
As things stand I guess that means an option like "When: Ignore status UNAVAILABLE" or something like that? //Steve ________________________________ From: Michael Shook [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: den 11 april 2006 14:20 To: Servers Alive Discussion List Subject: [SA-list] RE: [SA-list] [SA-list] RE: [SA-list] RE: [SA-list] False positives So, you want an additional check box on the alerts "when" that will ignore ALL check errors? Timeouts, permissions, bad hair days, etc...? I LIKE IT! Makes me think, I could have one alert with only verified downs go to my engineers, and then another alerts to my catch-all for every thing. Oooo-ooo!! Even better, have my Server admins get all the error alerts, and the process engineers get the verified downs! Now that would be a nice feature! Michael D.
