Alerts after..

Friday, May 29th, 2009

Today for “featurefriday” we added the ability to define how many tests must show a status change (up or down) before we send you an alert.

By default we send an alert immediately when we detect a change in server or monitor status but now you can set a number between 1 (the default) and 20. In other words up to 20 tests before we send you an alert if you choose. This can help minimize alerts triggered by transient network or server issues.

Enable this feature from your settings page – just look for the “Alert after..” setting and select one of the options from the dropdown list.

Timezones

Friday, May 22nd, 2009

Another new feature is now live on ServerMojo – timezones! This means you can now set whatever timezone you want your monitors to work with and your stats, charts and alerts will show the times based on your choice. This should make it easier to correlate servermojo monitoring events with your own internal systems or local timezone.

To use this feature just go to your settings page and select the timezone you want. This setting applies to all monitors in your account. The default timezone is still GMT/UTC and can be left as it is if you don’t want to localize it.
