Not sure if this is related to my issue about Whoops errors or not, but it seems that the history does not always update correctly when a service goes down.
Seems to be the same problem as here...

My history.log shows no issues... Bunch of "Will not update <server.test> - color unchanged" messages.
This is not a problem if the errors appear after restarting Hobbit.
History updates are normally only logged when the color of a status changes. However, during a restart color changes might happen while the history module is not up and running, so the first status that Hobbit receives after a restart is always sent to the history module. This message is then logged when the history module detects that the color hasn't changed, and it drops the update.
Since updates will usually trickle in from clients during the first 5-10 minutes of Hobbit running, you will see this for a few minutes after a restart.
Of course, if this happens without Hobbit having been restarted, it is more interesting.
