How do I set a Windows server node to red when a specific application monitor is red?

Calculate node status in the SolarWinds Platform

The documentation does not appear to describe how to make a single, specific application monitor "down" set the node to red/critical. Using the information in the documentation, I can cause the node to go red for ANY application down status using the "Worst" rollup mode but it does not allow me to choose one specific application monitor. For example, say I have 3 assigned application monitors: A, B, and C. I only want the node to be red when monitor B is down but not A or C. When A or C is down the node should be yellow. 

You could manually set the node status based on the component status.  It's explained in Manually set a custom status in the SolarWinds Platform.

I appreciate the suggestion. I investigated this approach but receive this error: "action has failed Execution of CustomStatus action with Entity type - Orion.APM.Component failed. CustomStatus alerting action works only with Orion.Nodes."

It appears I cannot "alert on" Component, I have to use Node, but then I cannot use a component trigger condition.

I thought if you created a Custom Advanced Alert it should be possible.  Let me tinker with the idea for a moment.

There isnt really a "component trigger condition" really. You can use whatever on whatever but it probably wont work much

If you alert on the node layer you can either use complex alerts to go down the application/component route, or you can custom SWQL to it.

Otherwise most of the time I think people would just stick your application/component and a node in a group if it's a one-off

The logic is: You need to alert on a Node, so you can set a custom status.

Because of that you'll need to use a Custom SWQL Alert (Advanced) based around the "Node"

Since the alert is "based" around a node, you can tweak the node's custom status as an alert action.

This should work as written, but I don't have anything handy in my lab on which to test, so test it yourself and tweak the requirements as needed.

Thank you, this works!!
