Hi,

I have setup xymon server 4.3.10, here I have the issue with xymon alerts. When conn test for a xymon client fail, I get alerts for all the services monitored on the client, same when I reboot the client then the recovered alert I get for all the services. In such situation I just wants the alert for conn test not all the services. Please help me to avoid this flood of alerts.

Hi Nisha,

Can you provide your alerts.cfg? Feel free to sanitize any sensitive information. I suspect you are matching all services like this:

HOST=* SERVICE=* COLOR=red DURATION>15m $ALERT_MARK

The SERVICE=* means it will match every service, which may be what you've run into. Or perhaps you need to add a STOP so it doesn't fall through to another rule.
