For our organization, we rarely have a purple alert that isn't the entire server going offline. So we solved it by only sending purple alert messages for the CPU and wrote a custom message that says, your CPU is purple but it's likely your server is down. Please
log in and check it. <br>
<br>
Then, in the alerts.cfg file, our rules look like this: <br>
<br>
PAGE=%.*pagename/<br>
SCRIPT=/path/to/alert.sh name@email.com COLOR=red,yellow RECOVERED REPEAT=720 DURATION>3<br>
SCRIPT=/path/to/purple.sh name@email.com COLOR=purple SERVICE=cpu RECOVERED REPEAT=720 DURATION>3<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
