How to use deadman check?

1

Hi there,

I’m creating a deadman check and don’t understand what “And stop checking after” means?

I don’t want it to stop checking, like, once it find a down host and notify me, I need to be notified about other hosts that are down in the future too.

Here’s my background: I have hundreds of devices that are ingesting status update. I need to be notified when any of them goes down, continuously.

Are you referring to something from this page or elsewhere?

Yes I’m referring to that one.

If you want to keep getting an alert forever , just set that to the largest number it allows for. (The point of that limit I believe is to prevent notification fatigue/spam.)
