How best do I use a correlation rule to prevent other Dataminer agents from getting a 'connection timeout' alarm in the value field description of the alarm console when for instance an agent with the IP address 10.50.51.19 becomes unreachable?

Hello Marieke thanks for checking, sorry using scripting to solve this was deprioritized internally.

Hi Samson,
Does that means you no longer need any further reaction to this question, or that you would like to investigate this further some time in the future? If it’s the latter, I’d recommend adding a new question then, because older, answered questions like this tend to go overlooked.

Thanks Marieke, no further reaction/help is needed at the moment
Hi Samson,
By default this is not possible, as we don't want such system events to go unnoticed.
However, for testing purposes you can try the following:
As an action, make your correlation rule run a script:
The script should then contain
These values can be found in Cube by right clicking on an alarm and selecting "Properties", but can also be retrieved by requesting the Active Alarms:
You'll need to find your timeout alarm and use the values for "HostingAgentID" and "RootAlarmID".

I would replicate and test this and let you know how it goes.
