Greetings,
sometime my LibreNMS sends an alert because one device status change to down from snmp check, but I think the icmp check should be fine, the server were just too busy to respond.
So, is there a way to make my LibreNMS sends an alert ONLY when both icmp and snmp check failed?
Or is it already default?
Right now I use this rule to detect
What he said, or you can use the device_down macro (see https://docs.librenms.org/Alerting/Macros/):
macros.device_down = 1 AND devices.status_reason = "icmp"
I pair this with one that checks only for SNMP device_down with a longer alert delay to separately identify SNMP polling failures:
macros.device_down = 1 AND devices.status_reason = "snmp"
HTH
