Can I create dependencies between a cisco router > switch > MS Server ? I have tried this in the past without luck. This is being revisited to cut down on alerts. Any help is appreciated.
I would think you could do it by making the router the parent and the other objects as the child group. The linked article is the basic setup for dependencies. Not knowing what issues you ran into last time I cant offer much more without specifics.
