DOWNTIME in bb-hosts not working for client-based test
Hello,
So this weekend was the first time I've had hobbit running during a reboot of two monitored servers and while it didn't alert during the specified DOWNTIME for network tests, it started sending purple messages 30m later when the client-based tests weren't reporting.
The bb-hosts entry looks something like:
ip host # DOWNTIME:0:0400:0445 ftp ssh etc..
The server reboots at 4am and takes about 12-15 minutes to get moving again. (ibm h70) So a cron starts the cluster at 4:30 which in turn starts the bb client.
Bug or something to change in my config?
Thank You,

the manpage for bb-hosts says this should read DOWNTIME=0:0400:0445

Probably an 'at-home' typo. I'm pretty sure I had the syntax correct at work, but didn't feel like connecting right now. (I'll check tomorrow) Although since the downtime period worked for the network tests, I'm leaning towards a bug. (when you click on the history, the page is blue and mentions that the test was ignored due to downtime)

OK, I see why. The "dont go purple" for client tests checked if the "conn" test was red - but didn't consider the case where it was blue (disabled).

Bug.
