Howdy Guys,
I'm trying to figure out how I can build a "nested" for lack of better description device matching script. For example, "type equals network AND hostname match *domain1.com*". Or, "type equals network AND hostname notmatch *domain2.com*".
I can't just use a "hostname match *domain1.com*" because I also have devices in other groups with the same hostname match, but don't want to alert-check on those other groups.
I'm sure there's a way to do this, I'm just not figuring it out, and apparently my search-fu is weak.
Thanks,
Ron

Create two separate associations?
This will be easier in future. But today you need to make two separate associations.

Now that I’m working through this, I guess what I’m looking for is more in the line of dependencies…. Given a bunch of remote sites, I want to know if an individual piece of remote equipment is down, *but* if the circuit to that remote site is down, I don’t want 20 separate alerts for each of those 20 remote devices, I just want the alert for the primary router at that site, and suppress the alerts for the devices behind that router.
Maybe that’s one of the future things? 😉
Thank you!
…Ron

"To know me is to fly with me."

Not easily possible for us to do, since no one wants to wait 5 minutes to be notified of something just so we can check dependencies.
