in my experience availability reports are reliable, the only issue is often the health model is cluttered by too many bad MPs so, based on the class you’re reporting availability to you can have mixed result. A few advice, be as specific as you can (for example don’t use windows computer class rather use Windows OS class, disable all the monitors that are always “red”).

When reqularly checking availability, we see a decent percentage of our servers being reported as offline on a consistent basis. Are your results simlar? The agents report as healthly, the system reports as down.
