Thanks Betsy. That's what just happened. I killed the bbwin service on two windows boxes to test it - about half hour ago, then started getting all kinds of purple. Once I restarted bbwin, I got all the Greens.
I still have to figure out my email issue -I set up another macro and assigned a set of services to it in the alerts.cfg file, but nothing is coming out. Plus I'm still getting the duplicate emails -
I appreciate the help!
Regards,
Don K

It will stay green and then go purple. I gave up on BBWIN - we were experiencing too many false purples - not sure if there's a way to tell it to send a shorter status lifetime.
