This is going to be so incredibly helpful. Do you happen to know if the
uptime "yellow alarm" value can be centrally controlled? I've got some
Windows machines that have been up for more than 1000 days, so BBWin
reports yellow. I haven't bothered with changing the value because
right now I'd have to do it on dozens of machines individually.
The systems with high uptimes are in continuous production, so I haven't
been able to convince the integration folks to install updates and get
them rebooted. They're firmly behind firewalls, so I am not SUPER
concerned about their security.
