4410.1 | use logs | CTHQ::WOODCOCK | | Tue Jan 19 1993 19:30 | 8 |
| We write the info to a log file which name represents a time stamp. Something
like 19-jan-1992_16_10.status. Since we poll every 10 minutes the next time
it fires it will update a file called 19-jan-1992_16_20.status. We then check
the PREVIOUS log file for the same entity with a search string. If it is there
DON'T send mail (already reported down). If it's not there SEND MAIL.
it works for us,

4410.2 | Use a trouble ticket system | FARMS::LYONS | Ahh, but fortunately, I have the key to escape reality. | Tue Jan 19 1993 19:36 | 3 |
| DECalert can deal with this, too, as well as do things like
page you between 8 and 5, send mail 5-8, notify someone else
if you dont responsd in some specific amount of time, etc.

4410.4 | DECalert may plague you as well | CSOADM::ROTH | You like it, it likes you! | Mon Feb 01 1993 10:25 | 9 |
| BTW-
DECalert *does not* have the functionality to page only once if multiple
page requests are sent to it... I asked them to have include this
functionality a few years ago and the basic response was that "For now, you
will have to keep track [of multiple events] externally [i.e. outside of
DECalert]."
