Multiple All Day Thresholds
We have a need to implement an greater than and a lower than threshold on the same instance of a datasource, multiple all day thresholds would make this process quite easy.
Thank you.

·8 years agoCouldn't you still use an expression for this scenario?
if(eq(datapoint,1)||eq(datapoint,6)||eq(datapoint,7),datapoint,1)
Then you can set your alert threshold to warning/error/critical when >1, it would still give you the numerical value indicating what the problem is, but would return 1 (or whatever other number you want) when the values are "OK" values.

·8 years agoHate to bring up a dead thread, but this doesn't work when you need the actual datapoint. In our case there is a range that can be returned. Say 1-7. 2-5 are "OK" returned values. 1, 6 & 7 are bad returned values, but each one of those values tells us what is wrong.

·9 years agoHi Matthew -
Internally we tend to handle these types of use-cases with a complex datapoint. To do so, you'd create a complex datapoint with a calculation that would return "1" when the collected value drops below your minimum threshold or exceeds your max threshold, and otherwise returns "0". You can then set a simple alert threshold on this datapoint to trigger when the value > "0".
In this case, the complex datapoint calculation would look something like this:
