Action conditions > Type Of Calculation

[Capdefava]

Hi All:

Does anyone know how I can configure this type of conditions calculation?

(A) Trigger value = PROBLEM
(B) Trigger = "MyTriggerPingFailure"
(C) Trigger value = PROBLEM

A AND NOT (B AND C)

I mean, run the action when any trigger value was PROBLEM except if trigger "MyTriggerPingFailure" value is PROBLEM.

I don't want any action for any trigger PROBLEM if the problem is due a connection failure (MyTriggerPingFailure PROBLEM)

Thank you.

Regards,
CPF

As I understand you, this action should fire every time a trigger is in problem state but if the trigger "MyTriggerPingFailure" is in problem state it should not fire?

Perhaps you can do

AND
(A) Trigger value = PROBLEM
(B) Trigger <> "MyTriggerPingFailure"

I did not test this...

Yes, you've understood correctly.

AND
(A) Trigger value = PROBLEM
(B) Trigger <> "MyTriggerPingFailure"


I just test and this does not work, because this condition run the action always that trigger = PROBLEM if the trigger is not "MyTriggerPingFailure"

Thanks anyway!

Ok, I've tested now.
First trigger was the Processor Time Percent . If the processor is more than 90% busy the trigger goes to "Problem" state.
The second trigger was the percentage use of drive c:
If free space is lower than 2% the trigger goes to "Problem" state.

Trigger value = "PROBLEM"
Trigger <> "pcxx:Low free disk space on {HOSTNAME} volume c: in Percent"

The result was one "Problem" mail because the CPU Trigger and a second mail for the "OK" State of the CPU trigger.
The free space trigger was ignored.

As I understand your problem with these conditions the action runs as I expected.

Thank you

Finally I did it with 'trigger dependencies' not very confortable if you need to use with a lot hosts/triggers but it works....
