Complex Condition

Hi,

I'm trying to use a complex condition to first check if a database is up and then check if the application is down.

Basically, if the DB is up then check if the application is down and if so, raise an alert.

If the DB is down and the application is down do not raise an alert (DBAs will be alerted via their own alerting, OEM).

I'm beginning to think that a Complex Alert Condition is not the right way to go but cant tell because the alert doesn't fire

When testing this I do not receive an alert. Am I on the right track or or way off?

Thank you!

If it's not working as expected try moving these conditions down. I usually only filter nodes on the top section or leave it blank and put the alert conditions all together in the lower section. This should work if you rearrange it. Maybe choose 'All objects in my environment' in the upper section.

Cheers @bobmarley ,

I did as you suggested but still no alert notification. I can see the events firing in Events.

Hi,

I figured out the scope was not working when taking the SWQL and running it in SQWL Studio so I've corrected that. However, I cannot figure out how to achieve my goal though.

If the DB is up then check if the application is down and if so, raise an alert.

If the DB is down and the application is down do not raise an alert (DBAs will be alerted via their own alerting, OEM).
