All, On some of my targets I have multiple alerts. For instance, I want to know when packet loss is over 5%, but I also want to know a different message when packet loss is = 100%. However, 100% loss is also over 5% so I get two alerts on the one failure. Is there any way to avoid that? Also, I have an Offline at Startup alert - I would love to have it so that if that condition is met then don't bother sending out the additional alerts on that target.
While I'm on the subject of Offline at Startup, I don't want to know when this pattern no longer applies. Using this alert I get an email initially saying the condition was met (==S,==U) and then 10 minutes later I get an alert stating that the condition "offline at startup" has cleared... which is true. The pattern is now ==U, ==U so it doesn't match. Is there anyway to avoid this? BTW, I am using edgetrigger so I know when there is a failure and then when it gets resolved. I do not want an alert at every polling interval! Any ideas? Maybe I need better logic in my alerts. I've pasted them below for your review: +OverFivePercent type = loss pattern = >5%,>5%,>5% comment = Three or more polls showing greater than 5% packet loss. +NoResponse type = loss pattern = ==100% comment = Host not responding on 1 (or more) consecutive intervals +OfflineAtStart type = rtt pattern = ==S,==U comment = Smokeping was restarted and this device was already off-line. -- Unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Help mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Archive http://lists.ee.ethz.ch/smokeping-users WebAdmin http://lists.ee.ethz.ch/lsg2.cgi
