Thanks all for the responses. That makes sense. Here is another request that probably isn’t possible but you never know.

Anyone doing anything similar to:

Device Down, alert syscontact

Device Still down for 20 Minutes email contact x

Device Still down for 60 minutes email contact y

I know alerting is in beta stage at present. We love everything about this software and paid for alerting knowing that its in beta stages. This is sort of the last thing we’d need to consider this a serious contender to replacing Cacti/Nagios etc.

I'm sure Adam or others will correct me if necessary, but I seem to recall the documentation saying you can do that by specifying <email address> as part of the SNMP contact value on the device, and whatever you put in config.php will cover those devices that don't have an email address specified in the device snmp contact value.

I could be wrong, it's been several weeks since I last read that part of the documentation.
