Hi,
We are using Xymon-4.3.28 server on RHEL6.8.
Assuming following definitions/logs :
---extract of alerts.cfg---
$SENDSMS=/opt/xymon/server/bin/sendsms.sh
$MAIL_DEFS=REPEAT=24h RECOVERED $SMS_DEFS=COLOR=red $MAIL_DEFS TIME=W:1800:0700,60:0701:0700
$MAIL-Test=MAIL test at example.com $MAIL_DEFS $SMS-Test=SCRIPT $SENDSMS 0123456789 $SMS_DEFS
HOST=myhost
$MAIL-Test $SMS-Test
---hosts.cfg DOWNTIME specification for myhost--- DOWNTIME=msgs:W:1759:0701:Many_errors_from_WSUS,msgs:60:0000:2359:Many_errors_from_WSUS
---Notification Log---
Mon Feb 13 18:01:57 2017 myhost msgs 0123456789
Mon Feb 13 18:01:57 2017 myhost msgs test at example.com Mon Feb 13 18:00:10 2017 myhost msgs 0123456789 Mon Feb 13 17:36:58 2017 myhost msgs test at example.com
At 17:36:58, the msgs check fires a CRITICAL mail alert : OK
At 18:00:10 a SMS is sent despite the DOWNTIME specification : ???
At 18:01:57 a "disabled" mail and SMS alerts are sent : mail only should occur
The SMS_DEFS'TIME specification is global and we want to override this for this particuliar host/test but this does not work.
?
