Hi All -
I am attempting to monitor all nodes I added within the NPM to monitor whether their network connections go down.
I've put the following Advanced Alert, shut down a NIC on a server, and a interface on a switch, neither triggered an alert.
If your trying to monitor all interfaces on all nodes remove the first two conditions of your advanced alert.
Only leave the "Interface Status is equal to Down".
you might also want to make the status as "not up" just in case the status get changed to administratively down. Also, I would add Node Status equal up so you don't get the message when the node is down or communication to the node is down. (That what I have for my alert)
Look better?
The condition "interface status is equal to down" is too specific.
try reversing the logic to this:
"Interface status is not equal to up".
