Set default "If down for..." and "Notify every XXX" at the account level#326

I know these settings are available on each individual monitor, but I would like to have a default set at the account level, leaving the monitor level setting to take priority.

The reasons for an account level setting are:-

• You only have to set it up once, not on all the monitors individually. It is tedious to set this up multiple times on each monitor, once for each Alert Contact
• A change to the notification policy would mean updating each monitor separately too.
• It is easy to forget to set it on future monitors so having it on the account level would avoid this.

Thanks

In case people don’t find this setting (like me): You need to edit an alert and click on the right yellow Select “Alert Contacts To Notify” section on the wheel at the corresponding alert. Then you can change the value to e.g. “if down for 3 mins, notify once”.
