On my AIX box running the Hobbit client I found that disk alarms aren't generated if the condition goes from yellow to red.
I have rules to send an Email if it's yellow, and I always get that. I also have rules to send a page if the state is red, and I get those if it jumps from green to red. But, if the state goes to yellow and then to red, the paging rule never fires. There isn't a entry added to the notification log either.
I've mentioned this before on the list, but never got a definite response.
I'll look into this problem.
I've been trying to re-create this problem, but I do get the alerts I expect to get.
One thing that might confuse some people: The REPEAT setting counts "across colors". E.g. if you have REPEAT=30 (the default, 30 minutes between alerts), and the sequence of events goes like
22:05 Test goes yellow - alert (yellow) is sent 22:35 Test still yellow - repeat alert (yellow) is sent 22:45 Test goes red. No alert is sent because it is only 10 minutes since the last alert went out. 23:05 Test still red - now an alert (red) is sent.
