Question about advanced alerts - triggered actions limits

I have a question concerning advanced alerts. Is there a limit to the number of triggered actions an advanced alert can have?

for example I have an advanced alert which has 14 separate triggered actions due to my escalation needs...would this pose an issue for the alerting engine or any other part of Orion?

I think that depends on how nimble your SQL backend server is. If you get a flood of alerts, will your SQL server be able to handle it?

Other than that, I don't think there's a limit.

HTH,

Bain is correct. There is no hard limit on the number of conditions you define. Each new constraint adds complexity to the SQL query that's executed every minute (by default) to return the status of those nodes/applications/interfaces/etc. So depending on the speed and performance of your SQL server the more complex a trigger condition is the longer it will take to execute.
