IIRC there have been problems with crossing over midnight, so you may want to split the second rule to TIME=W:1700:2359 and TIME=W:0000:0800

(and I may be remembering from the Big Brother days . . .)

Yes Big Brother did have this issue, Henrik fixed this with hobbit.

Thanks.

We have the following the the Alerts file:

on-call page

$TSSSYS_ONCALL_DAY=SCRIPT /home/hobbit/server/ext/qpage.pl tss_sys_oncall COLOR=red REPEAT=10 TIME=W:0800:1700 RECOVERED

$TSSSYS_ONCALL_OFF=SCRIPT /home/hobbit/server/ext/qpage.pl tss_sys_oncall COLOR=red REPEAT=20 TIME=W:1700:0800 RECOVERED

$TSSSYS_ONCALL_END=SCRIPT /home/hobbit/server/ext/qpage.pl tss_sys_oncall COLOR=red REPEAT=20 TIME=06:*:* RECOVERED

$DUPING=%(mxgate)

HOST=$DUPING SERVICE=conn

    $TSSSYS_ONCALL_DAY

    $TSSSYS_ONCALL_OFF

    $TSSSYS_ONCALL_END

We had a host (mxgate03) go down at 3:15am, it sent 1 initial page, but no follow ups. No repeats. Does Monday from 12am-8am fall in a “limbo” timeframe where the 2nd rule does not apply since it’s not a Weekday after 5pm, but before 8am??? The host was down for over 3 hours without any follow up pages.

Do I need a rule similar to:

$TSSSYS_ONCALL_MON=SCRIPT /home/hobbit/server/ext/qpage.pl tss_sys_oncall COLOR=red REPEAT=10 TIME=1:0000:0800 RECOVERED

The different rules are suppose to repeat 10 minute during business hours, and 20 minutes off-hours.

Any ideas? Is this a bug or expected behavior?

Thanks.
