Is there a way to snooze the managed entity <B> by the action from rule that is setup on sampler in managed entity <A>?

Yes but you need atleast two rules to make this work.  First rule is to set the severity of the cell or sampler to critical or whatever severity you like to set.  Using path aliases in the second rule, you count the number of severity that will then trigger an action.  Here is the complete xml file as an example.

 

Snoozing ME2
<ruleGroup name="Snoozing ME2">
    <rule name="using fkm as a trigger">
        <targets>
            <target>/geneos/gateway[(@name=&quot;test1&quot;)]/directory/probe[(@name=&quot;test_P&quot;)]/managedEntity[(@name=&quot;ME1&quot;)]/sampler[(@name=&quot;myFKM&quot;)][(@type=&quot;&quot;)]/dataview[(@name=&quot;myFKM&quot;)]/rows/row/cell[(@column=&quot;triggerDetails&quot;)]</target>
        </targets>
        <priority>1</priority>
        <block>
            <if>
                <like>
                    <dataItem>
                        <property>@value</property>
                    </dataItem>
                    <string>error</string>
                </like>
