We have some snmp/wmi queries and I want that the test will be always shown as good, regardless of the returned value.
I think, this should work with an expression?
Martin,
This may be acceptable, but remember this is going to return OK even for non-responsive statuses, which you may want to deal with differently. I know I have tests that are OK regardless of response, until there is no response at all.
BTW In many cases you may simply setup test to check for a value that never will be retrieved. E.g. set "Alert when OID ... is < than -5" for some counter that always returns positive value.

Thanks for your note, I have no problem with this.
We have some "tests", which have only informational character, so f.e. we have snmp queries on our different blade server systems to get the actual blade assignments. And with reports, we can see with one view which server is in which blade and in which slot.
We "abuse" HM also for only statistical information, f.e. performance counter checks - How many printed pages we have per hour, day, ...
Martin,
Cool, as long as you know. I use AHM for some stats too, but for me persistant 'Null' results, in some cases, skews the info/stats I'm trying to build.
