I want to set specific nodes to alert only when when they are down for a specific amount of time, like 20 min. How and where would I adjust this option.
Setup a custom property so that you can note something unique on those nodes. Then when you create an alert for node down add a condition for that custom property being equal to what ever it is you set for those nodes. Lastly, in the alert you can set that the condition has to exist for a specified amount of time before it will trip.
Hope this helps!

Where or how do you set up costume properties?

I would use this method. It is found at the bottom of the trigger condition tab.
Login to the system that Orion is running on, go to Start > All Programs > SolarWinds Orion > Grouping and Access Control > Custom Property Editor
Here you can setup new custom properties for nodes, volumes, and interfaces. In this case you will want one for the node. Once you have these setup you can go to any node in the WebUI to view and edit these new fields for each node.

Ok wait a minute. All that did was create a new custom property. Where do I go to control the alerts the actual alerts. All I want to do is make certain nodes not send a "node down" alert until it had been down for 30 minutes.
