That's true. Could you do something with REPEAT?
In this specific case, he could use the ntp test. Otherwise you he'll probably need to write his own external test.

Hi,
BUT - if the procs-column is already in the red-state, when the 2nd process goes bad, it wont trigger a notification...

Write a script to put in alerts.cfg.
HOST=apple COLOR=red SERVICE=proc SCRIPT /usr/local/scripts/xymAppelProcs $NG-SYSADM $NG_DBA
Then the script will have to look at the alert, and see which one it is. And alert the proper person.

That is one alert - I want to be able to do
Host=appel PROC=ntpd alert a sysadmin
Host=appel PROC=weblogic alert a dba

Of course it's possible.
In analysis.cfg, you have something like this:
HOST=some.host.name PROC ntpd 1 PROC <insert appropriate regex here> <minimum #> <maximum #>
And in alerts.cfg:
HOST=some.host.name MAIL someone at email.address<mailto:someone at email.address> COLOR=<yellow or red>

I want to have a system procs (cron ntpd) alert
and
a dba procs (weblogic blah blah) alert.
Based on my current understanding this is not possible under 4.3 ?
I can write code to do this - I just do not want to do unnecessary work!
