Tom,
I’ve tried this as well and tried to separate the emails by syslocation under host match: location equals example county. This still has no effect, Which part have I screwed up royally?

Hi Stefano,
The old alerting system did more than host up/down, but this was probably the biggest hurdle for people to being able to disable the legacy system.
I'm going to have a look if the old one did anything the current one can't do with checkers but I think there might be nothing left.
If you were relying on the legacy system for host up/down only, you can definitely turn it off.
- Entity type: Device
- Checker condition: device status = 0
- Host match: * (or whatever you want to monitor, only)
- Entity match: *
will give you host up/down alerting.

Hi Tom,
if I understood correctly, does this metric replace the legacy up/down alerting system?
Thanks,

Yup, you need a more recent version, device entity was added 17/4.

Actually we haven’t updated in a while (we are an ITIL shop and updating can be a pain). Here is our version:

Erik,
Are you on the latest version? (It's probably not in the stable branch yet?)

$config['entities']['device']['id_field'] = 'device_id';

Is there a way for using the new alerting system to send an e-mail when a device goes down?
I see in the wiki that there is a “device_status” metric, but I can’t figure out how to use it. There is no “Device” entity type when I try to make a new alert checker.
Is this feature still in development?
