Re: Monitoring active/passive interfaces -- hiding 'down' interfaces
Ahhh, I can't remember if this will stop them from showing up in the active alerts view, but it will not send a notification. Check the "Unpluggable" checkbox in the interface details for both interfaces. You'll still get statistics.

On the web console, the down interface on the switch will show as unplugged.
Depending on the reset condition (default is status = up), you may have to go clear out the individual alert in the alert manager (Open Advanced Alert Manager on the server, View -> Active Alerts, click the X next to the individual triggered alert). You could disable/enable the whole interface down alert itself but it will retrigger for all interfaces that are down.
