I am a relative newbie to Solarwinds. Does anyone know how to set up alerts where it would go off if a node is down 5 minutes during the day, then 15 minutes during the night?

How I would do it: 2 separate alerts setup. One for your Day and one for night.

Under trigger condition you set the "Condition must exsist for more then x"

Under time of Day tab you specify the schedule for that alert

Does that make sense or you want me to go more into it?

Thank you! Can you please go more into it?

solaradmin

are you currently getting alerted for down nodes?

kcolgan

yes, from what I understand, the alert is triggered when a node is down for 5 minutes.
