use "GROUP" instead of "DISPLAYGROUP" Define your group in analysis.cfg for something i.e.
DISK /var 95 99 GROUP=Sharepoint
Then in alerts.cfg
GROUP=Sharepoint COLOR=yellow TIME=W:0700:1700 MAIL sharepointadmins at hotmail.com<mailto:sharepointadmins at hotmail.com> REPEAT=365d

Hi,
I'm using version 4.3.10 of Xymon and I'm experiencing issues with the DISPLAYGROUP parameter in alerts.cfg.
The following is working well:
DISPLAYGROUP=Sharepoint COLOR=yellow TIME=W:0700:1700 MAIL sharepointadmins at hotmail.com<mailto:sharepointadmins at hotmail.com> REPEAT=365d
but the following is not working (not generating alerts):
DISPLAYGROUP=Sharepoint COLOR=yellow EXSERVICE=cpu TIME=W:0700:1700 MAIL sharepointadmins at hotmail.com<mailto:sharepointadmins at hotmail.com> REPEAT=365d
If I try to specify a service with SERVICE instead of EXSERVICE, I get the same behavior.
SERVICE and EXSERVICE work as expected in the following scenario (but of course I'm missing the group filtering):
HOST=* COLOR=yellow EXSERVICE=cpu TIME=W:0700:1700 MAIL sharepointadmins at hotmail.com<mailto:sharepointadmins at hotmail.com> REPEAT=365d
I think it's a bug, unless I missed something in the documentation.
Thanks!
