Kapacitor deadman false alert

InfluxDB 1 Kapacitor
1

I have configured a deadman to raise an alert if no data received in a measurement but it raises continuous false alerts.
The kapacitor and the influx are installed in different system.

//–Alerts for Inv1
var data_inv1 = stream
|from()
.database(db)
.retentionPolicy(rp)
.measurement(input_inv01_measurement)

// Enable alert if no data
data_inv1
|log()
|deadman(1.0,deadman_value0p0_time)
.id(plantName + ‘: Inverter1 in task {{ .TaskName }}’)
.message(’{{ .ID }} is {{ if eq .Level “OK” }}alive{{ else }}dead{{ end }}’)
.messageField(’{{ .ID }} is {{ if eq .Level “OK” }}alive{{ else }}dead{{ end }}’)
.log(’/tmp/deadman.log’)

Same here.

dbrp "kapacitor"."autogen"
stream
    |from()
        .measurement('health')
        .groupBy('hostname')
    |deadman(1.0,30s)
        .log()
        .slack()

It supposed to notify if any of hosts will send no data. But if one host going down kapacitor notifying about all of them

Hi.
Thanks. I’ve solved it. The problem was in snmp data over udp that was not delivered from time to time
