Is anyone looking to fix this issue?
It keeps popping up and folks are losing confidence in Xymon. It’s hard not to when something goes from yellow->red and there are no alerts generated.
To recap:
- Test goes yellow
- Duration passes
- Warning sent
- Repeat time set to X (in my case 8 hours)
- Test goes red (within that 8 hour repeat time)
- There are no alerts generated even though the test has gone red
Thanks, John

It's a known issue. I don't believe I've ever seen any kind of resolution.

This problem contributed to an outage last night – something is wrong.
Last night we had a disk that was in the warning state – warning email sent.
That disk then went into an alert state and an alert email was triggered (right away as the DURATION value took into account the time it was yellow) and then again 15 minutes later as designed.
THEN – another disk on that server went yellow. It did NOT trigger any emails (as expected we should continue to focus on the alerts) but it somehow interfered with the REPEAT time of the alerts and those STOPPED.
There is a bug somewhere.

This is a problem I have seen for a long long time and have actually brought it up on the list before. Xymon 4.3.21 Ubuntu 14.04LTS
The problem I have (in this instance) a warning which is to be repeated daily suddenly goes red and triggers a single alert but doesn’t repeat again until the repeat time of the warning has passed.
