SDT interface changes
SDT management and entry is very time-consuming. As a new user, I just spent a few hours setting SDT for our servers (around 100) and in our previous monitoring system this would have taken about 1...
Steve, you bring up a great question with the SDT in alignment within groups. For the OP, I would do this. Configure a custom property for each of your servers that contain some bit of information by that you can then create dynamic groups with. Then set your SDT by group as Steve noted. You might be able to get all of your SDT down to way less than ten minutes!rnThe custom properties is crazy powerful. We even do things like creating a property called contact that has a particular systems owner and contact information in it. Then we include that custom property in all alerts related to that system. We never have to hunt down a system owner this way.rnHope this helps!
