That's just awesome. This is the push that I needed. I'm a little thick headed at first Adam but I learn fast.
I'll be back for questions on ore specialized alerts!
I'll write you documentation. Shoot me an email if you're interested. I can use your Wiki, or just blog it for you somewhere. I found some of your posts on forums elsewhere. Why not centralize it? -- Sincerely, Joshua Hopper, A+ CE Network Administrator

To match all devices, use *, to match all entities use *
To match all IOS devices with 'core' in their hostname :
os equals ios hostname match *core*
To match all 'eth0' ports on your linux servers you could do :
device
os equals linux
entity
port_label equals eth0
It's fairly straightforward, once you get used to it. It does require a tiny bit of understanding of the information we get back from devices in places, we really do need to improve the documentation on this soon!

Is there a guide on how to best setup alerts for all devices?
I found:
http://www.observium.org/wiki/Alerting_Metrics_and_Attributes [1]
http://www.observium.org/wiki/Creating_an_Alert_Checker [2]
I want to set thresholds for DISK, RAM, CPU, UP/DOWN, and RX/TX Limits for all devices.
Is there a particular Device Association or Entity Association I'm supposed to use?
I figured I would set some general and then get specific with alerts by hostname for specific instances I want to monitor.
