Master Monitor

Hiya,

I think I've seen this question here before, but I can't seem to find it.
What I would like to do is create a test that counts the 'bad' items in a specific folder, including underlying folders.
If the count of 'bad' items exceeds 5, then something really bad is (or could be) going on, and we need to investigate right away.

Does that make any sense?

Thanks!
Kris

You may use some test (e.g. Ping 127.0.0.1 ) with the following variables in reply and "Use Warning status if" expression:
%FolderRecursive_BadTests%
%FolderRecursive_UnknownTests%
%FolderRecursive_WarningTests%.
"Tune up Reply value" expression may look like the following:
[%FolderRecursive_BadTests%+%FolderRecursive_UnknownTests%+%FolderRecursive_WarningTests%]
"Use Warning status if" expression may look like the following:
(%FolderRecursive_BadTests%+%FolderRecursive_UnknownTests%+%FolderRecursive_WarningTests%) > 5
"Treat Warnign status as Bad" option should be enabled.

Please check for details at:
