Need small help for a trigger condition on node down

Hi All,

This could look stupid but i wanna confirm if my understanding is correct.

I have a node down alert in place where there are certain set of conditions which should not match. Image below shows the condition set.

Now i also have another condition for server down which has the condition as Node down and Node should have custom property value called Server.

The issue i am seeing here is when a server is down, it is getting qualified in 1st condition also which results in duplicate notifications.

can anyone help where i am going wrong?

I think your logic is wrong. I'm assuming "Node" "State" is your custom property you're referring to that tells you if its a server or not? If so, your saying that any one of the properties in the bottom part of your condition must not be satisfied, so even if "Node" "State" is "Server", any one of the other conditions can be false and that would make the second part of your condition still true, regardless of whether or not its a server. You can change it to "All child conditions must not be satisfied", but that's probably not what you want either.

Guessing you'll need to add another block and do the "Server" part separately...

So I'm curious, Orion has a Built-in property called "IsServer" that is set to true if its a server. Why not use that?

Hi Craig,

Thats what i was thinking. I can use "All child conditions must not be satisfied". This should give me alerts only for nodes which are not servers.

The other condition for Server is already working where i have custom property tagged for all servers.

Yes i did read somewhere about this property but it was not working in some version and a hotfix was developed.

Hi Craig,

I got it resolved. The problem was with custom property part which was involved in second section in my condition. I clubbed it with Node down condition and left the second section condition as it is. now not getting duplicate alerts.
