We have a number of Field Office sites. The sites have two edge devices, primary and backup. I have a group created with both edge devices in it and the group will alert when both devices are down, this works. I also get alerts when either node goes down regardless of the group status.
What I would like to do is get a Group down alert but suppress the node down alerts if the group is showing as down.
So if one node is down I would get a node down alert on that device.
If both nodes are down I would NOT get a node down alert but would get the group down alert.
I think setting the group down alert to trigger after the group has been down for 10 minutes and the node down alert to trigger after being down 12 minutes would keep them from triggering simultaneously. And if the node down trigger condition is evaluated after the group is already marked down this should work.
Just trying to figure out the trigger condition to place in the node down alert that would have it evaluate the condition of the group. IE; group is up then alert, group is down then don't alert.
