I am wondering if anyone has seen this before and to be honest it doesn't happen all the time.
Xymon 4.3.21 running on either Ubuntu or RHEL (happens on both).
If I have a rule for a warning that has a set REPEAT interval, and that warning (yellow) goes to alert (red), the time has to expire for the yellow before the rules are applied for the red.
Example:
Notification.log: Tue Oct 20 00:31:09 2015 clientbox.disk (x.x.x.x) disk_warn 1445315463 100 <8 hours pass> Tue Oct 20 08:31:11 2015 clientbox.disk (x.x.x.x) disk_alert 1445344265 100
Alerts.cfg: PAGE=CLIENTPAGE COLOR=red,yellow,purple SCRIPT /home/xymon/server/ext/pg/my_alert_script disk_alert DURATION>20 REPEAT=15m COLOR=red SERVICE=disk FORMAT=TEXT UNMATCHED SCRIPT /home/xymon/server/ext/pg/my_warn_script disk_warn DURATION>30 REPEAT=8h COLOR=yellow SERVICE=disk FORMAT=TEXT UNMATCHED STOP
The disk went to red at 03:10:00 but instead of sending out an immediate alert as the status changed, it waited out the full time length of the REPEAT value (8hours) and then sent the alert.
I have seen this before and it drives me nuts but it doesn't happen all the time.
Ideas? Thanks, John Upcoming PTO:
