Greetings,

 We have a system that has a red CPU alarm every 10 minutes or so for a
duration of about 5-6 minutes. Would it be possible to use the BAD tag
within the BB hosts file to have the status propagate to bb2 only if it has
been red for 10-15 minutes?

I thought that I read a list message relating to this at some point, but
I've been unable to locate anything.

Running version 4.2-alfa-20060423

Thanks,

Mike

Not for the bb2 page. The "BAD" tags only apply to network tests at this
point, I'm afraid.

You can do it with the "Critical Systems" view, since that is completely
configurable with regards to when you want something to show up.
