Any thoughts from LM on when this will happen? We had a case today that was very confusing until you realize what is happening. A switch rebooted due to a power failure and generated a reboot alert. As something was causing the SNMP process on the switch to spike CPU, we ended up disabled SNMP for now. The same reboot alert continues to fire indefinitely until the instance alert is manually disabled. If that alert state had changed from warn to unknown (or stale or whatever you want to call it), we could have avoided sending meaningless alerts on stale information. What is frustrating about this is there is no way short of some API hacks to handle it -- we really need LM to address this problem.
I would really like to see LM respond to all feature requests with at least some ideas on if/when they will be addressed.
