you need to select only one tmm process, because every process is generating an alert. And you only have to select one system for alerting not both.

i think pool member up/down is reported by mcpd. so, shouldn't it be only one log?

e.g.

[root@ve11a:Active:In Sync] config  tail -f /var/log/ltm
Dec 12 01:30:13 ve11a notice mcpd[7229]: 01070727:5: Pool /Common/foo member /Common/200.200.200.101:80 monitor status up. [ /Common/http: up ]  [ was unchecked for 0hr:0min:35sec ]
Dec 12 01:30:13 ve11a notice mcpd[7229]: 01071681:5: SNMP_TRAP: Virtual /Common/norf has become available

Actualy when one member goes down i get 2 logs one from each LTM system and when they come up i get 1 mail from each device again that pool member is down although it just came up.

i think 1 email from each device is correct, isn't it? email is sent based on log. if you do see log, you should have received email.

First log for pool member down is received straightaway in local logs. But sometimes I get one log straightaway and i get another log member down after 5 to 10 minutes later. Now during checking this time i received one email but last time i received two mails caz i got 2 logs. Lets hope i don't get 2 logs more often. I receive email from root[host name of my LTM] although i have configured fromaddress as f5admin@mobilink.net but from address is always root[host name of my LTM]
