Uptime data

Ritu
Explorer

I have created one linux uptime or reboot alert if the server gets rebooted it will trigger the alert if the uptime<=600 secs .
Now , I have one server where the uptime value is 0sec, and then after 5mins the uptime data changes to 300 and again after 5 mins it changed to 600 secs.
It was suppose to throw an alert but it didnt where as the alert only took the data of the first uptime value of the server which is 0 secs.
The data directly comes from the server there is no script inline.

Ok, so that means there is issue in polling. Well, the polling for the alert was for last 10 mins.

Does the alert have a throttle?  Can you share the alert SPL?

There you go.  By the time the throttle expires the server has been up for more than 10 minutes so the alert will not fire.
