I would like to monitor a service that depends on the server and a login service being up.
So I would like an alarm to go off:
- to the networking group if the server does not respond to ping
- to the server people if the login service is down
- to the application people if the service behind login is down
But I do not want to spam the app people if network is down or the server people if the application is down.
So I need a way to express dependency on alarms:
ping < login < app
How do I express these dependencies?

One way would be to configure different actions & recipients for each case you described.
So, open up Configuration -> Actions, and configure there something like
For network people:
For server people:
For app people:
Also make sure that type of calculation under Conditions tab is set to
AND
.I hope this helps you. :)
