While I see that that would solve my problem, considering we still don’t have pre-defined custom variable selections, etc… I think it would be pretty messy to set it up that way. I think there are a number of uses for if..then..else in alerting that would be helpful.

Yeah – I know, I’m just engaging in discussion…

I think that one of the field types for custom properties should definitely only include pre-determined values. This would be a really useful feature, and to me, it seems like its not really that complicated to implement.

From my testing it looks like its not actually happening like this. If I create a test alert, it runs the actions as they are "enabled". I think this relates to the "this alert should be checked every..." setting.

At the moment, there will be 9 "A Sites" and 17 "B Sites". We tried to limit it to two classes to keep the alerting nice and simple. At the moment, most of the "router groups" will only have one node in them, but there are several with two nodes, and this is a project at the moment, so I would expect most to have two nodes…

This looks really well done...

Edit --- Yeah, I did mean for that overlap... I think that is just the way the service delivery manager wants it... After re-reading you post, I think I undestand what you're saying. When an alert is fired, it runs the actions that are "applicable" at that time, and then stops. So, it would send any e-mails that were…

You've basically got what I want to do, but there is an additional requirement, which is the part I dont understand. I need to Tier my sites... so. Site Class A Site 1 Site 2 Site Class B Site 3 Site 4 I need to have one response for router group down from a site in Site Class A and a different response for Site Class B. I…

Yes, you do it with alerts.

We have a 2N GSM gateway that apparently uses the following MIBS... I can't seem to find them in the MIB database and I dont know the OIDs

So, I figured out how to do what I wanted very easily without needing custom SQL. All I did was create two parent groups - one for "Site Class A" and one for "Site Class B" and I added the relevant sites into the groups. Then I created a "Group Member" rule that says "Group Name = Site Class A" and "Group Member Status =…
