Alex,

How can i execute and action in a test which goes only from "Wait for Master" to "Bad" status? The action I´ve configured in Bad Action "side" are not been executed by hostmonitor.

Thanks,

Jromariz.

Alex,

Tried to setup an action with advance mode using expression ('%Status%'=='No answer') and ('%Recurrences%'=='3'), but still does not work...

If you are using "repeat 1 time" option for the action and test status changes from "Bad" to "WaitForMaster" and then back to "Bad", action should not be executed.
If test status changes from "Ok" to "WaitForMaster" and then to "Bad", action will be executed.
This is correct behavior.

('%Status%'=='No answer') and ('%Recurrences%'=='3'), but still does not work...

1) You said status is "Bad" not "No answer", so you should use expression like ('%Status%'=='Bad') or use expression like ('%SimpleStatus%'=='DOWN') for any failed status

2) Do not use '' for numbers. (%Recurrences%==3)

What exactly do you need?

Regards
Alex

Alex,

This test will always go from wait for master to bad. I need the action to be executed every time it changes between this two status.

Thanks,

I am afraid this is not possible. I think you should assign this action to master test.

Alex,

The problem is:

1 - Have several test;
2 - Only would like to start action when all testes goes bad.

Any ideas?

Regards,

If "all tests" means 3-10 tests, use advanced mode action. Or use regular action assigned to additional test (test that depends on "all tests").
If "all tests" means 100 test items, that's the problem...

Alex,

Only about 10 to 20 tests.

In such case you should try Advanced mode action and prepare expression like this:
('%::Test1Name::SimpleStatus%'=='DOWN') AND ('%::Test2Name::SimpleStatus%'=='DOWN') AND ... AND ('%::Test20Name::SimpleStatus%'=='DOWN')
