I have experienced issues with a setup like this, however, this was with both match & notmatch statements in the "entity match" part.

I've splitted it up in 2 associations, which in your case would be 4 associations.

Have you verified that the alert-checker matches everything that it should match?

Yeah, those aren't valid association rules, you haven't specified a device attribute to match against.

Please read the documentation:

Please include
screenshots. It
isn't clear what you put in the association settings.


It looks like you
didn't
actually say what should "not match" those strings.

Hi,



I'm trying to exclude some servers from a check, but it does
not work.




Check Conditions

processor_usage    greater    80



Device match:

*

notequals db-02

notequals man-01



Entity match

*



But when I run regenerate the two machines have always the
alerts enabled.

removing the * from Device match don't help either.







A second question, is it possible to suppress alert checking
during a certain period , I'll do off site backup each day
that triggers this alert.

The alert check: Traffic exceeds 85% with a delay of 2

If I put the delay higher I will not receive 'real' alerts.
