ESXi problems are polluting the problems app

Hi,

we got hundreds of ESXi problems occuring every day. Via an alerting profile they are set to only create an alert when they last longer than 15min. 99% of them are closed earlier, they usually only last a few minutes.

 

Here is my problem:
In the problems app I see all the "problems", even the ones that never made it past the 15min. That a looooong list of "could have been become an alert" problems.  The huge amount is distracting the users from the actual problems/alerts that need some following up.

 

Is there any way to hide the irrelevant problems any only display the useful ones?

Example from today:

Hi,

How is problem triggered? Anomaly detection? Custom metric event?

These are ootb event types from the classic VMWare integration. They are used in an alerting profile.

Hi,

You can filter before table by that alerting profile, or per problem duration.

I can do that, but I haven't found a way to persist that filter for all our users. It's annoying to always apply the filter before you start to use the app

Hi,

Maybe create a notebook them, with filters applied where people only need to make click.

Or a dashboard with real time data.
