This will probably sound like an odd request but is there a way to configure The Dude to send an alert when the uptime of a device exceeds a certain time? For example if a machine is on for over 6 hours send an email but not necessarily when the machine comes online or goes offline providing the duration is less than 6 hours.
Hope someone can help with this. Thanks, nbruk
Yes you can do this. Do you need the probe built for you or can you use a template and handle it?
up-time: [oid(“1.3.6.1.2.1.1.3.0”)] <— place that on the appearance label of a single device. You will see the up-time. This is just to see the actual value returned. Set the label back to default once you are done.
Use this if you need a run down of how to make functions/probes.

Use this if you know how probes work and just need a template.

And if you are still needing help you can read the probe thread.
If you want I will build the probe but I will wait for your answer.
