Perform alerts with short delay ?

[Stefan]

Hello KS-Soft Team,

I have a question:

Is it posible to configure an alert, which wait 2 seconds
before it is executed after test goes bad ?

Kind regards

There is no such option.
However you may use "Change test interval" action with other actions.
E.g.
1. add "Change test interval" action with options like: Start when 1 consecutive Bad result occur; Intraval Set to: 00:00:02
2. add some action, like "Send email (SMTP)" with options like:
Start when 2 consecutive Bad result occur;
3. add one more "Change test interval" action with options like: Start when 2 consecutive Bad result occur and "Restore original value"

With these settings, "Bad" test will not start alert after first "Bad" probe, test interval will be changed to 2 sec, test will start one more time (after 2 sec), and then email will be send, finally test interval will be changed back to defaul test interval.

Hello KS-Soft Europe,

thank you for fast answer.

But, what can I do, if I want to use an SNMP-Trap test?
It has no test interval.

Kind regards

What exactly action do you use? If you are using "Execute external program, I think its easy to make delay using simple application...
