Hello
I had an issue with exchange 2010 MP that the alert generated for messaging queue length when it was at 15 and the next generated when the queue length was 5074 and the it generated when the queue was at 10835. And this caused an outage for the exchange team. This could have been avaoided if the alert would have been generated when the queue was at between 100 to 500.
Could some one please help me how can configure the alert for different queue lengths? The details of the alerts are as below for reference.
