I would like to add how many times a previous alert has been trigger. Example if a trigger has been triggered 4 times, I would like to be able to display that in the Alert email. The ${AlertTriggerCount} is not what I am looking for.
What is the Type of Property that you are monitoring, and are you looking to see how many times that it has triggered overall or in the last 24 hours?
Not with in a 24 hour period, but how many previous alerts were sent pior to the current alert being sent out before its been cleared(weather on its own or someone acknowledges the alert to stop any future alerts.)
Let me know if that explains things better.
How many times a reoccurring alert has been triggered before being acknowledged is not stored anywhere. As such there is no variable macro for this. You could in theory create a SQL query based upon when the alert initially triggered and the reoccurring alert interval with ties into the alert acknowledgement. For instance if the alert was triggered at 10:00am and an alert sent at the same time. Then you have your reoccurring alert set to 5min and the alert wasn't acknowledged until 10:30am, the query would return "6". This could then be created as an alert variable as outlined in this example.
Keep in mind this is all theoretical and would require a good understanding of the SQL query language to implement.
