I agree that this is not a new issue. I have discussed this before (http://lists.xymon.com/archive/2009-January/023201.html (Henrik's reply: http://lists.xymon.com/oldarchive/2009/02/msg00133.html) and http://lists.xymon.com/archive/2008-September/020998.html).
But now that we have flap detection, I'm not sure that Henrik's listed problem with changing it is really an issue. So I hope it can be changed!
BTW, The oldarchive is better for following threads (provided they don't cross month boundaries): http://lists.xymon.com/oldarchive/2008/09/msg00057.html Compare with the previous link. However, the new archive keeps attachments. It would be nice if the functionality of both archives were merged...
Kind regards,
SebA

I've seen this exact same issue going all the way back to hobbit, so this is not a new issue with 4.3. I would love to see it fixed though, as it's very annoying to get paged when you are second or third on call and everyone gets notified on the first red.

You're saying yellow for an hour and red for a few seconds triggers like it was red for an hour?
I note that the previous example was for a custom test but I also have seen this for the disk test: (set to email every 8 hours when yellow)
