Hello everyone,
we are trying to improve our monitoring process by utilizing the Priority of Devices and Sensors. Being a big international company we have many that access our PRTG System so we want to make sure, everyone follows our guidelines and does not interfere with the set prioritization.
Is there a possibility to further restrict write access to the priority rating, other than by assigning read-only accounts?
Short information: The idea is to only have a few select core systems and core locations on 4-5 Star priority. This would require immediate action when triggered. For the system to work it should be avoided that other workers in the IT department would scale up the priority of their "favorite" devices.
A workaround could be a prioritization via tagging though this could be difficult to use in maps since the libraries only support up to 1000 elements which would surely be overseeded. So we would want to display maps with objects that already only show devices with specific star ratings.
A side question would be if it is possible to track the time a device is for example in an acknowledged state. We would want to gradually step down the star rating if a device is in an acknowledged or paused state for a given time. I suppose this could be possible via API?
Thanks in advance
Benni
