trigger with variable severity

[aperezl]

Hello,

I need some quick advice about triggers. I want to have a trigger with severity depending on the value and dont know which is the best way to get this.

so, I want if the cpu usage goes above 80% trigger an alert with severity "average". But if it goes above 90%, then severity = high.

I have implemented with 2 separate triggers, but that is not optimal as if the cpu is at 95% then 2 alerts are triggered.

Should I create this?
cpu > 90% --> trigger w severity = high
cpu > 80% and <= 90% --> trigger w severity average

or there is another way?

Thanks.

Hi.
You can do as you described or use trigger dependencies.
In trigger for "80%" you point in dependencies to the trigger with ">90%".
When the ">90%" trigg lunchs off then the "80%" will stop allerting as long as the ">90%" is allerting
