Hi Roger, Is this feature available in openvas 8 ? In my alerts setup, the only available methods I have are: - Email - System logger - HTTP Get - Sourcefire/Verinice connectors - Send to host / SCP / SNMP There is nowhere a "Start Task" option which would allow me to to start the next one. Is this a plugin or something not bundled by default in openvas 8 ?
