[Xymon] Where is xymon message life found?

A host+test combination which does not report often enough will go 'purple'. The duration or 'life' of a status message can be set by sending a status+LIFETIME.

I have a a couple of tests which have not gone purple, despite not being updated for over a week. I have a file named ~/data/hist/foo,bar,com.test which contains the times the test named "test" has changed state for the host foo.bar.com. The last entry is 1496866851 which works out to June 7th.

Where can I find the information indicating when xymond will consider this test ready to go purple?

Do things because you should, not just because you can.
