A common scenario for web monitoring is monitoring different websites:
If the Ping Sensor which monitors the gateway fails, both HTTP Sensors will also fail. To avoid the execution of multiple actions a dependency can be defined.
Here, HTTP Sensors only perform the requests if the last result of the Ping Sensor was successful.
This can be configured as follows:
Basic Settings
Name |
The name of the sensor. |
Comment |
The comment on the sensor. |
Trigger |
The interval on which the sensor performs its checks. |
Depends on |
The sensor on which this sensor depends. If this sensor fails, the dependent sensor will not be executed. In this case the 'Ping Sensor'. |
State |
The state whether the sensor should be active or inactive. |
