HP SIM 6.2 alerts

[Molenski]

Hi there,

Not 100% sure I'm in the right place here but let's see!

In one of our remote sites I've setup an alert from HPSim to a couple local admin people set to 'severity is Critical' so that when there is a loss of connectivity to the server, they'll receive a text and this works fine. The question is (hopefully not to stupid), can an alert be sent out when the machine is once again reachable? I mean, if I set an alert to 'serverity is Informational' or something similar, then they could potentially receive messages for all sorts of events. Can this be done using the 'Event Category' setting maybe? Thanks for any help in advance.

but creating an alert with severity normal you will achieve this.

If it doesn't leak oil it must be empty!!

Hi,thanks for getting back. The solution you've given me, won' this mean that the customer will receive random alerts for all sorts of different things? I only want him/them to receive events in the event that the server is powered back up. Thanks.

We use it and only get alerts when the server changes back to usual operation. We also have alerts set for minor and major events to advise us of disk \ memory failures etc.

OK, thanks for your help. When you say, get alerts when the server changes back to usual operation, what do you mean and what settings do you use? Thanks again.

Normal operation is when the server has a green icon (healthy) next to its name.
