Experts:
I have a new fairly large xymon environment (4.3.28 with >10k servers), and of course there are always a lot of alerts acknowledged.
Unfortunately all these acks are resetted if i restart the xymon daemon (xymon.sh restart) to activate config changes f.e. This is the same if i use the "Acknowledge alert" from the menu or the (undocumented) "xymondack" feature of xymon. This leads to a lot of extra effort and confusion... Any ideas how i can save the ack situation and restore it after a restart?
You might want to have a look at these old threads. I remember this problem because it bit me back then.
