Set up URL Monitor to retry before alerting
The URL monitor in OpManager is sending too many alerts for URLs that are slow to respond. We have some URLs that will occasionally time out, but then come right back up. Our old monitoring system worked like this:
1. Poll URL every 5 minutes.
2. If URL seems down, poll 5 more times at 15 second intervals.
3. If the URL fails to come up 5 times, THEN alert the sysadmin.
Can OpManager do this? If not it's value is greatly decreased in my humble opinion. False alerts are extremely annoying to the on-call technicians.
