| Hello WUP'ers!
I would like to discuss an issue that came up when I am planning my alert strategies.
I have an Action policy that does the following:
UP - Send mail to all admins
Up at least 5 min - Send mail to all admins
Up at least 5 min - Send _SMS_ to all admins
Down - Send mail to all admins
Down at least 5 min - Send mail to all admins
Down at least 20 min - Send mail to all admins
Down at least 20 min - Send _SMS_ to all admin
well, this works just fine, and I am getting mail right away when something fires, and for longer stop's I also get an SMS.
Problem is that I am getting an UP-SMS even when a device has been down for example only 6 minutes.
So I am recieving some SMS. saying that all is fine with the device for at least 5 minutes...
Hope you understand what I would like to do....
I know that WUP simply does what I tell it to do.
I have a feeling that I would like to bind two kind of action policies to a device..
Some planning hints would be appreciated.
Regards, Magnus Finbom |

| First, are you running SP1? if not, this is a known issue -- upgrade. In SP1 you make the Up condition contengent on the corresponding down condition. i.e. you don't get an up five minutes unless a down five minutes has happened. There appears to be a problem in SP1 when setting device dependencies or setting maintenance. i.e. a device goes to an unkown or maintenance state and then when it comes out of that state, an UP is sent even though it is not supposed to. |

| Hi!
Thanks. I already had SP1 installed, but had completely missed this feature.
Sorry, I was blind. ;-)
This does exactly what I needed. Now I love SP1 even more. :-)
