Business Intelligence Aggregation and scheduled downtimes

Hey there,

I’m using a BI aggregation to -among other things- generate notifications on changes of that aggregation.
I do it via “Check State of BI Aggregation”. It works mostly as expected, but:

If I use the options for considering Scheduled Downtimes, it is not working as I would expect.

When there is a “problem 1” and a “problem 2” (in Critical od Warning state) in the aggregation and I activate a Scheduled Downtime for one of them, the overall Status of the service “Check State of BI Aggregation” changes to okay and it says:

Of course I activated the following parameter for that:

But if I deactive it, downtimes are totally ignored. (The third “warning option” is also not what I want.)

Is there any option to have the aggregation state checked like the “worst state of downtimes”?

An example for what I want to see:

  1. Service 1 is critical & Service 2 is critical. Both are parts of the aggregation.
  2. I activate a scheduled downtime for Service 1.
  3. “Check State of BI Aggregation” stays CRIT because there is still one critical and “unhandled” service left. (better: critical and without downtime)
  4. I activate a scheduled downtime for Service 2
  5. “Check State of BI Aggregation” changes to OK because there aren’t any “unhandled” services left.

I hope you understand what I mean. I think there must be a way, but at the moment I just don’t see it.
Actually it’s the same problem for acknowledgements, but I set focus on the aggregation states here in the first place.

Thanks and kind regards
Manuel
