Need alert for multiple disk failures on same node

patriot

I have both NPM 12.1 and SRM 6.4. I need to alert when 2 or more physical disks on the same node are down. I can see how to use the Advanced Trigger conditions to do this for multiple disks, but I think it will probably alert when at least two disks are down even if they are on different nodes. I mention that I have SRM as well because I'm not sure if I will need a separate alert for physical disks that are part of an array. I need for this alert or alerts to cover any physical disk. Any ideas please? Thanks in advance.

On the NPM side for nodes you will probably need to write a custom sql/swql alert that counts the number of disk hardware issues grouped by nodeid and triggers on any nodeid having count>1

On the SRM array side you would use similar logic, just looking at the disks and counting the number of disks in a failure mode.  I don't have anything in srm with bad disks right now so I don't know the exact syntax but just group by array (maybe get more granular if you don't want this to be array wide) and count failures.
