Problem with a action profile - wait for master status

Post by mp1 »

Hi,

We have a test which depends on two master tests with condition dead.
In a normal case, the test will always have the status "wait for master"

Although when now both master tests are dead, the test will be executed and I will get a bad status alert - so far so good.
Now when the master tests will be again ok, the status is again "wait for master" and so I don't get any good status action.

So what have I to do, that a good status action will be executed?
I think, you can solve this with a expression - or?

Thanks in advance

Quote from the manual
==================
Synchronize status & alerts
This option is applicable only if "Synchronize counters" is also selected. When the option is turned on, besides synchronizing counters, the dependent test receives the status of the master test, which in turn will start action dispatching based on the status propagated from the master test.

Example: On your corporate network you have 10 web servers and 1 router that is critical to the entire network. A router Ping test is set up to page the administrator if the router does not respond. So when the router goes down, and the "Synchronize status&alerts" option is turned off, HostMonitor sends a message to the administrator's pager and suspends all dependent tests. If "Synchronize status&alerts" is on, in addition to the router problem notification, actions defined on the dependent tests will be fired off as well.
==================
