[Xymon] Missing feature ?

[Becker Christian]

Thank you for your reply, but this doesn't meet my wishes ;-)
As long as I disable a single test -services in my example- because one of my 20 services are "red", I do not recognize if another services also goes red...

Have you looked at "admin > enable|disable"?
If you have a 'red' alert, you can disable the test for a periodic
amount of time or until it's resolved.  The failed test will change
from red to blue but the top level colour changes back to green.

I think this satisfies both of your requests (but I only quoted the
first one for brevity)
