I've a problem with my running 4.03RC1 (yeah, I know :-) that doesn't seem to change with 4.2 Alpha.
With this alert_config set:
HOST=%(whq-sapcon-1|whq-sapcon-2) EXSERVICE=msgs SCRIPT=/usr/local/hobbit/server/ext/pg/sms oracle_echelon SERVICE=telnet,svcs,procs color=RED DURATION>6m REPEAT=4h MAIL techsupt at localhost SERVICE=telnet,svcs,procs DURATION>6 REPEAT=4h MAIL techsupt at localhost UNMATCHED DURATION>6m REPEAT=4h
I get this when running the test:
00018172 2006-04-05 11:42:36 Matching host:service:page 'whq-sapcon-1:telnet:' against rule line 140 00018172 2006-04-05 11:42:36 *** Match with 'HOST=%(whq-sapcon-1|whq-sapcon-2) EXSERVICE=msgs' *** 00018172 2006-04-05 11:42:36 Matching host:service:page 'whq-sapcon-1:telnet:' against rule line 141 00018172 2006-04-05 11:42:36 Failed 'SCRIPT=/usr/local/hobbit/server/ext/pg/sms oracle_echelon SERVICE=telnet,svcs,procs color=RED DURATION>6m REPEAT=4h' (min. duration 0<360) 00018172 2006-04-05 11:42:36 Matching host:service:page 'whq-sapcon-1:telnet:' against rule line 142 00018172 2006-04-05 11:42:36 Failed 'MAIL techsupt at localhost SERVICE=telnet,svcs,procs DURATION>6 REPEAT=4h' (min. duration 0<360) 00018172 2006-04-05 11:42:36 Matching host:service:page 'whq-sapcon-1:telnet:' against rule line 143 00018172 2006-04-05 11:42:36 Failed 'MAIL techsupt at localhost UNMATCHED DURATION>6m REPEAT=4h' (min. duration 0<360)
So if I'm reading this correctly, my 'duration>6m' is being interpreted as 'duration>6h'. The intent here is to require two failed tests before paging. Where have I gone wrong?
