percpredictivefailure (Too many alerts)
Hi,
When I have a drive about to fail in my Poweredge 830's, a "percpredictivefailure" trap is sent every second to the management server, which in turn sends an email to me.
So if this happens over the weekend I could have thousands of emails by the Monday. So I created a filter to ignore this and send only 10 mins which seems to be the max time you can set as the interval between alerts. I still have hundreds of alerts if it happens on the weekend.
Is there a way of configuring IT Assistant to just get one trap/alert and ignore the rest????
Any help would be great.
Cheers,
Needles

Hi Jeff,
Thanks for your reply. I have used the default filter you suggest. 600 (10 mins) seconds is the longest interval you can set between the alerts. Is it possible to make this interval longer, or if not, just get the alert once and ignore the rest of them???
Cheers,
Neddles

I think the 600 second limit is the only option, unless you get the first alert, then login to ITA and create an exclude filter for that alert. Just don't forget to delete the filter once the problem has been fixed.
