Hello,

Try making a Status alert with “status_event ne ok” and Status Type in Cisco-stackwise-switch-state.

Hello,

I was wondering if anyone could help me write a better alert checker to determine if a Cisco stack has a missing member.  Occasionally, one member of a stack will fail, but the stack continues to operate so it's not in a "down" state.  I would like to get a notification when that happens.

I am currently monitoring all stack ports, but any unused stack ports show "down" as well, so I'm looking for a better solution.

I would like to use another status indicator such as "stack is redundant" or "stacking state":

Perhaps cswRingRedundant ?

Could anyone assist me with how to construct an alert check to accomplish this?

Thanks!
