Increasing severity level

[kerber]

Hello everybody,


I am new to Zabbix and trying to configure an autoincreasing severity level according to time passed.

For example:

12:00 - Link is down
12:00 - 12:30 - warning level
12:31 - 13:00 - average level
13:01 - 14:00 - high level
14:01 - xx:xx - disaster level


I know that we can email using escalonation but I have to do this visually at dashboard.

Anyone could me show the horizon?

Thanks in advance,
Daniel Kerber

i'm using zabbix 1.8

Hi,

You can do that with 4 triggers:
Trigger1 :
- level : warning
- value : {host:icmpping.last(0)}=0
- depends on : Trigger2

Trigger2
- level : average
- value : {host:icmpping.max(1800)}=0
- depends on : Trigger3

Trigger3
- level : high
- value : {host:icmpping.max(3600)}=0
- depends on : Trigger4


Trigger4
- level : disaster
- value : {host:icmpping.max(7200)}=0

Hope this helps

Its working! Thanks a lot for the tip. Its increasing perfectly.

But when I resolve the incident, the severity is decreasing the same way that increases. For example:

12:00 - Link is down
12:00 - 12:30 - warning level
12:31 - 13:00 - average level
13:01 - 14:00 - high level
14:01 - xx:xx - disaster level

15:00 - LINK IS UP!!!!

15:00 - 16:00 - high level
16:01 - 16:30 - average level
16:31 - 17:00 - warning level
17:01 - xx:xx - no alerts


Can I just make disappear these alerts when the incident becomes ok?


Thanks...

What value have you defined for your triggers ?
In my example, as soon as icmpping returns 1 (OK) all triggers become false at the same time.
