Carl,
I would guess it is similar to something what I mentioned in my posting asking about combos which has so far has garnered no response:
xymoncmd xymond_alert --test host service --duration=29 --color=red
00002332 2011-08-07 12:57:58 *** Match with 'EXHOST=$HOSTS_EXCLUDED HOST=* SERVICE=service COLOR=red' ***
00002332 2011-08-07 12:57:58 Matching host:service:page 'host:service:Site/Platform,Place' against rule line 432
00002332 2011-08-07 12:57:58 Failed 'SCRIPT=$SENDPAGE $PAGE_NMS DURATION>30m REPEAT=365d' (min. duration 1740<1800)
The duration above is in minutes when clearly the documentation specifies seconds?
--test HOST SERVICE [options]
Shows which alert rules matches the given HOST/SERVICE combination. Useful to debug configu-
ration problems, and see what rules are used for an alert.
The possible options are:
--color=COLORNAME The COLORNAME parameter is the color of the alert: red, yellow or purple.
--duration=SECONDS The SECONDS parameter is the duration of the alert in seconds.
--group=GROUPNAME The GROUPNAME paramater is a groupid string from the analysis.cfg file.David Gore (v965-3670) Network Management Systems (NMS) IMPACT Transport Team Lead - SCSA, SCNA Page: 1-800-PAG-eMCI pin 1406090 Vnet: 965-3676

Hi,
Thanks alot for this!
But I found a curiosity when trying to disable things:
./xymon localhost "disable host.conn 86028s Disabled by: blah @ 10.10.10.10 Reason: blah blah"
Doesn't put the host in maintenance for 86028 seconds (almost 24 hrs) - instead it uses minutes (59 days instead) - is there a bug with the "s"-suffix that I don't know about - or am I using xymon disable wrong?

From TJ Yang, he probably has this posted on his site which I don't recall right now. We may or may not have made edits. We use it on Red Hat Linux Enterprise 5.6.
