The Failure block includes variables about a failure - i.e. values displayed in Simon's Monitor window in the failures table.

Variables are tags in the file that are replaced by another value when the report is used. Variables are enclosed in curly braces, and have a variable name optionally followed by any number of parameters, e.g. {failed type="relative"}. See the parameters page for information on the available parameters.

The variables that are available in this scope include:

Variable:Outputs:
DowntimeThe length of time between failure and recovery.
