OK now, How do I go about setting up a trigger that needs to meet two Custom Properties? I have the following and want to know what you guys think? Trigger Alert when ALL of the following apply Application Status is equal to Down "Custom Property1" is equal to a Trigger Alert when ANY of the following apply "Custom…

Solved. SolarWinds Alerting Engine wasnt started.

this worked: Trigger Alert when ALL of the following apply Application Status is equal to Down Trigger Alert when ANY of the following apply "Custom Property" is equal to a Application Name is equal to Exchange Info Store Application Name is equal to Exchange Mgt Application Name is equal to Exchange MTA Application Name…

yes its enabled. No hour glass. This came about when I wanted to test an alert. I set up the advance alert to simply monitor the Windows Print Spooler to one server. I've stopped and restarted the service many times and received no email alerts. It shows in the Events Monitor, but no email was sent.

bullseye. Message Macros were configured wrong. 

I want to be alerted when either one of the two services goes down. The following seems like it will only alert me if both IIS and the Exchange Info Store goes down. In other words no alert if only one of them fails. Trigger this alert when ALL of the following apply Node Name is equal to * Application Name is equal to…

Hi njoylif, I tried your rmethod but when I try and click OK to accept the changes I get a warning from the SWAlertEngine saying: Please specify a complete Trigger Condition Complex condition is empty, does not contain nested conditions any ideas?

Testing the Advance Alerts = nothing Basic Alerts are working Test Alerts from Basic Alerts are working.

thanks for the reply Mark. If I add the clause you mention, I would have to define every server not running that service wouldnt I? any idea why I get alerts for services not running on the mentioned server?

wouldnt changing it to ALL from ANY mean that both services will have to go down for the alert to trigger?

can someone explain how are my alert tells me that IIS is down and then four minutes later its up. Only thing this server is not running IIS. What can it be?

did that. no difference. emails are still not being sent. I also tried the Test Fire Alerts with no luck. Is there anything else I can try?

Thanks again Mark. yes, I have the Application monitor. How do I exclude a server or group of server running theses services within the same alert? whats the difference between these two? Trigger this alert when ANY of the following apply Application Name is equal to Internet Information Store Application Name is equal to…

I call 866 530 8100 go throught the menus and after maybe ten minutes I might get someone to answer (sometimes not). I give them all the information they ask. account number ID, whatever. They ask if I submitted a ticket. I say yes, two. Tickets were submitted over ten days ago. They replied with more questions, which I…

please elaborate. Where do I find the poller? What I've done: * Added the servers using the the "New" button in Orion Network Performance Monitor. * I then added the server to the Orion Application Monitor and selected the services I would want monitored. (Exchange isnt an option since its not installed on this server, nor…

Thanks Mark. The community string was entered wrong. Entered the correct string and all is well now.

bump up the time at the bottom of the Trigger Conditions tab. For Example: if your server takes two minutes to reboot, set the alert to trigger after three minutes. That way when you get an alert you will really know its down.

how would you exclude a server or group of servers for this alert?
