Alerts when device recovers

I am experiencing the following problem.

Here is what we have:

Ping test for Server A
CPU test for Server A
Disk Space test for Server A
NT Service test for Server A

The CPU, Disk Space and NT Service test are each dependent on the Ping test.

Each test is configured to send an email if there is a status change.

Server A goes offline

Ping test sends email other tests go into Waiting for Master status.

This is fine

Now the problem happens when the server comes back online

Instead of receiving just one email for the Server A being backup we receive a page for each test on the server.

Each time a server restarts we receive many pages when it comes back online.

We only want one page from the Ping test when the server goes down and one when it is back online.

Use "Action depends on bad one" option for "Good" actions.

You are correct. I had set up many Action Profiles and on the later ones I had omitted that option.

Thank you.
