David, It sounds like you have your Alert trigger set to 1 if you receiving alerts for 1 missed poll. It is recommended that the alert trigger is at least 3. Which means that it will take 3 consecutive missed polls to trigger an alert.

Not just a device here and there, but like 150 devices will report down all at once, usually for only 1 poll, though, so at least my pager and e-mail aren't getting slammed. Anyone seen anything like this?
