I need a status (we have now mail and SMS via mail) in the morning that I can see
- Everything is ok (no check DOWN) - Some checks are DOWN, together with details - No status, no breakfast â first go and look what is wrong! With a status summary like âSummary line AND all Down checksâ this could be possible. I can choose - âSummary line onlyâ - that does not give me detailed information - All Down Entries - I cannot distinguish if everything is ok or SA cannot send mail - All Entries - too much lines, not sorted in a way that I can see the DOWN checks in the first lines for a quick review (and SMS is limited, taking the first part of the information into some 2 SMS and discarding the rest) - ?

Certainly you could have multiple alerts one that sends everything at a specified time and one that sends down when they happen or after 5 minutes of down for example.

Now I have either this or "something is wrong so SA cannot send mail", but I cannot know which of these. Obviously I did not read it correctly from the documentation, thinking "when to send" and "what entries" are independent. I am mainly interested in the DOWN entries in the morning, not the others. So I could have a dummy DOWN check scheduled for this time or send all entries - almost 1500.

That could explain the behaviour - I would have to work around this, because I need a status mail to see SA is working. The SMTP logs did not show an attempt, but we can verify this once more with addressing the Exchange nodes instead of the load balancer.

Servers Alive! Version 6.2.2279, as we are in transition from Win 2000 (VM) to Win 2003 (hardware) we have 2 different systems, but they both show this effect. The configuration (configuration file and registry entries) were transferred from the old to the new system. The system names and the sender mail-addresses are different. We tried to address our load balancer or the Exchange nodes directly, no difference. The Exchange admins tell me they cannot recognize anything in these cases.
