I'm trying to debug a problem with alerts. We have a catchall rule that alerts "on-call" person about any connectivity, http and httpcontent checks going red. The syntax is: HOST=* SERVICE=conn,http,httpcontent COLOR=red DURATION>4 followed underneath by the MAIL command. But I see that oftentimes, the alert doesn't get sent even if test has been red for 15 minutes.
Don't know if this is connected, but if I try the "bbcmd hobbit_alert --debug --test HOST SERVICE" test, it fails on the catchall rule
add the --duration=SECONDS
Not sure I understand. I thought duration, by default, was minutes and that's what I wanted
