Olly,

First, as you illuded to this is not a issue with Observium, and anything done in Observium is just covering up an underlying issue.

Here are two options to achieve what you are asking both having pros and cons:

1 - Use the Alert Delay in the "Edit Checker Details":

2 - Modify the conditions in the "Edit Check Conditions" to include storage_perc notequals 0 :

Hi there,

I have an alert set up to trigger if a storage device's used space is 80% or more.

We have a few devices which are over this threshold, but they sometimes momentarily report their storage_perc as 0, triggering a RECOVER email and then an ALERT email as soon as the device starts reporting its storage_perc correctly again.

I know that this isn't necessarily an issue with Observium, but is there anything I can do to ignore a value of 0?

Many thanks

Olly
