Dave,
Thanks for the note. These are great questions and I'd like to learn more from
you and the other IM-Talk readers.
I've split your question into two, so we can keep the two threads separate.

Fault Isolation
How are you handling fault isolation and notification suppression, especially
in multi-homed networks? The "vantage point" solution has been useless for us.
Our current NMS, Spectrum, handles fault suppressions well and automatically.
If InterMapper is ever to replace Spectrum as our NMS, I need suppression of
notifications to work better. Our engineers get cranky when they are awoken in
the middle of the night from errant and extraneous pages. Even the ability to
set manual dependencies would be welcome.

Could you tell a little more about your network setup? How does multi-homing affect
the notification suppression? (Would it be possible to get a screen shot?)
I'll definitely look at what Spectrum does. Are there other systems that "do it
right?
I look forward to feedback from everyone on IM-Talk. Thanks.
