Hi Bertrand,
No needs to use alert module for that.
On SVN4574 the alert for host down is working.
You'll just have to set some stuff on config.php :
$config['alerts']['email']['default'] = "alerts@example.com";
$config['email_from'] = "Observium obs@example.com";
$config['email_backend'] = "smtp";
$config['email_smtp_host'] = 'mail.example.com';
$config['email_smtp_port'] = 25;
$config['alerts']['email']['enable'] = TRUE;
$config['alerts']['port']['ifdown'] = TRUE;
// Port Bandwith
$config['alerts']['port_util_alert'] = TRUE;
$config['alerts']['port_util_perc'] = 85;
With such configuration you will get alert : host down / up.
Otherwise on Alert menu (just after Observium logo; click on Globe) you can define alerts.
By the way don't forget to se email on SNMP to where alert it should go... :p
Xavier
