Re: Need a filtered disk free space report
35 minutes ago, Stuart Weenig said: Any heartburn over adjusting the thresholds so they get a yellow at 8GB and red at 3.5GB? Then you could run an Alerts report, filtered down to that logicmodule and only include the yellow criticality alarms. They could exclude these alarms from their workflow by filtering them out of their escalation chains with a pretty simple rule. Hmm, this might work also...60Views0likes0CommentsRe: Need a filtered disk free space report

Create a custom DataSource that gets only data if it's <= 8GB (either directly or having it query LM), perhaps list each server as instances. Which you can then create a report on. Convince the customer to let the monitoring system do its job and save them time by letting it notify them when it drops below 8GB instead of getting let another daily email that will be ignored. :)/emoticons/smile@2x.png 2x" title=":)" width="20"> First, this customer is not trainable ? Stuart likes the 2nd to last idea posed by Mike, and coincidentally I headed down that road before I posted, but couldn't figure out how to filter the datasource for the <=8Gb. Can someone point me in the right direction? I like the dashboard approach also, but it would likely get messy - there's as many as 120 active servers that could trigger the threshold.35Views0likes0CommentsRe: Need a filtered disk free space report

The customer wants one daily report that shows all systems that are close to running out of space so that they can tend to them all at once, rather than reacting to alerts in interrupt mode.. But thanks for your idea.79Views0likes0CommentsRecurring SDT spanning multiple days
We are using Website monitors to ping a remote printer 13 time zones away. By design, the printer is unreachable between 18:00 Friday and 06:00 Monday. How can I set up an SDT to suppress alerting during that time period, OR, do I need to set up multiple (overlapping) SDTs to cover the time period? Or is there another way...7Views0likes2CommentsRe: Timezone per user account
What is the status on this critical feature request? We have started to deploy in Azure all over the world and calculating time differences is way past becoming critical. We expended too many man-hours chasing nothing because the SDT on our CET server was off by an hour because of the 1 week difference in Autumn time changes between EU and US.16Views1like0CommentsAbility to toggle User Status to Active or Suspend on a schedule or on demand
We would like the ability to easily schedule people's time off in advance or on-demand, with an alternate user to be alerted if necessary. Use Case #1 - John takes a vacation. In order to suppress alerts going to John the way things work now, we need to suspend his user account. John returns from vacation, we have to remember to re-active his account, which we've forgotten on occasion. This might work similar to a Device SDT. Use case #2 - Mary works Monday - Thursday, 10 hours per day. Dave works Thursday - Sunday, 8 hours per day. Neither person needs to receive alerts on their time off. Use case #3 - Bill is out sick. All of Bill's alerts should go instead to Larry until Bill returns to work. Thank you for considering this. Bruce Berger Ostari, Inc1View0likes1Comment
