In my scenario, I've got some remote sites that frequently lose internet connectivity for several minutes. I do not want to trigger an alert each time this happens. I would like to be able to extend the Alert Interval for those specific sites so that they have to be down for e.g. 15 minutes or more before alerting.
As a longtime SolarWinds user, they have NOT always had this capability innately. But they have always had a workaround similar to what is available to LogicMonitor--proliferate the number of logical objects you would have to maintain that controls alert trigger delays. In SolarWinds, this would be Alert Definitions. Not ideal. Hypothetically you could have used a component-level configuration field (notes or description) and used that in a complex SQL/SWQL-based alert definition to achieve this. Also not ideal.
In SolarWinds SAM, they have added (in the past couple of years) the ability to define custom alert trigger delays on a per component basis, natively.
