Don't fire alert when status is not changing

unicast opened this issue · 2 comments

Currently seyren is firing alert every time value of the metric is changing inside of the limits, like on screenshot http://i.imgur.com/ahu3aM6.png
In many cases it's annoying and would be great to have an option to configure this behaviour.

@unicast what is the motivation for this? As far as I understand, new alert does not mean that the subscription will be triggered (the subscription should be triggered only when the state changes) - so you should receive email only on a state change.

Can you confirm that and clarify why you need that?

Hm, VictorOps endpoint is being triggered on every metric update, maybe it is something specific for VictorOps integration? In case if there are too many updates (like for Disk Usage for instance), my VictorOps becoming soooo slow.
