I’ve been told it isn’t supported by Orion. True parent / child relationships would allow you to properly suppress alerts. For instance, if a switch (Parent) goes down, all the servers (children) hanging off that switch are going to be down, and being informed about the 20+ servers along with being notified the switch is…
Hi, This has always been an annoyance (its the small things..) within the Advanced Alert. For the trigger condition you can use the Do not trigger this action until condition exists for more than X seconds|minutes|hours. As different areas of Orion have different polling frequencies it is always a problem to know what…
I'm trying to find a way to quiet alerts that have been acknowledged. Example - we have a volume alert that fires off when free space reaches a certain threshold. Often times resolving the issue could take a few hours (have to request disk from SAN group, etc), but in the mean time we continue to get alerts. I know i can…
I have the trial 10.1.1 running in our lab. Liking it so far but have a question. I have a primary and back up router, that if either goes down it generates a node alert, working FINE. these two routers are also in a group. If they are both down the group alert triggers but does it twice, once for each device. Is there a…
Alert Suppression is a topic that comes and goes in the forums and I thought I would contribute my version of Site based Alert Suppression. My method is a little different in the sense that I prefer to prevent the alert from triggering in the first place. WARNING: This is a 'hack', so I wouldn't recommend this for the…
Looking for best practice suggestions. I have been toiling with the format for trigger, reset, and suppress settings. Is it best to place node before condition? Proper Use of ANY and ALL especially in reset and suppress. Is this EVER going to be something added to the base product? Now with topology mapping enhancements…
Hi, I have set up various advanced disk space alerts on my exchange servers which should trigger when they reach the threshold but they are not doing. I have set up alerts at 35%, 50%, 60%, 70%, 80%, 90% and 95% with different drives in them but also they have the same drives in as well. Can anyone see anything wrong with…
Hi, Is it possible to add an alert suppression that firts checks if node name starts with XXX and then if time is between 10.59AM and 11:59AM. I can find the node name part ok, but there does not seem to be a way of checking what time it is in the alert suppression tab. Note that time of day will not help me since I only…
Hello thwack community I would like to hear how you are using Orion to alert on site outage. What I am trying to do is alert on a site down without getting an alert for every node at that site wile maintain the alert for any one device that may go down. In short trying to find a way to have 2 alerts, one if full site is…
