Is it possible to get a notification only if a group of sensors, or all the sensors on a device fail?
We have some failover systems that normally have one of their possible targets down, but I want to get an alert when all of a systems targets are down because that would mean that it can no longer serve users.

Hi there,
This will be possible with the new Business Process Sensor. You can add the checks in the settings of the sensors and define the overall percentage of sensors which need to be in a down state so that the complete sensors turns red. This is also described in this article.
