Show error message when threshold is reached for specific amount of time

Hi,

Is it possible to configure a time trigger on a sensor?

For example on a memory 'percent physical memory' sensor. I set the error limit on 1%. Can I configure that the error is only triggered if the threshold is reached for 5 times in 5 minutes, or something like that?

Hello there,

Thank you for your post.

Unfortunately, that is not possible. Sensors always immediately go down once they reach the set limit. You can only delay the notification that you would get from the sensor, for example instead of a notification being sent after the sensor is down for 1 minute, you can set it to 5 (or more) minutes.


Kind regards,
