Hello,

Today I noticed something strange on my Hobbit monitoring system. Indeed we experienced an outage on our network causing a high number of hosts to be unreachable and therefore causing the network tests to be long. It took 1285 seconds instead of maximum 300. It looked that that thing leads some misinterpretations of the BBClient data coming from the monitored servers. All data coming out of the clients have been considered as valid even if they were generated something like 4 hours ago. Another thing is that even the network tests generated by the server have been green for a moment even they were not ok all (those parallel tests have been performed in such conditions that I am sure of what I am saying).

This failure can cause some false positive if people are not watching attentively the test hours.

If there are any ways to get rid of that bug... Any help or explanation is welcome.

Etienne Marganne.
