Thanks for your answer. I've changed the subjet of this mail because I think
some alerts don't work as expected.

With this $BBHOME/etc/hobbit-alerts.cfg :

HOST=foo TIME=W:0900:1800
        SCRIPT /tmp/alerte.sh SERVICE=* EXSERVICE=disk,mem,procs
        SCRIPT /tmp/alerte.sh SERVICE=disk DURATION>5m REPEAT=2h
        SCRIPT /tmp/alerte.sh SERVICE=mem COLOR=yellow REPEAT=24h
        SCRIPT /tmp/alerte.sh SERVICE=procs TIME=*:1145:1150,*:1205:1300
REPEAT=24h

I received these alerts :

15/02/2005      11:38:33 foo.mem = yellow (ACK :125406)
15/02/2005      11:39:33 foo.disk = red (ACK :419182)
15/02/2005      11:45:13 foo.procs = red (ACK :992240)
15/02/2005      12:03:46 foo.procs = red (ACK :143469)
15/02/2005      13:39:50 foo.disk = red (ACK :78043)
15/02/2005      14:03:50 foo.procs = red (ACK :408423)
15/02/2005      14:09:50 foo.cpu = yellow (ACK :844373)
15/02/2005      14:09:50 foo.cpu = yellow (ACK :844373)
15/02/2005      14:11:50 foo.cpu = yellow (ACK :589672)
15/02/2005      14:11:50 foo.cpu = yellow (ACK :589672)

I think there are 2 false errors :
- for each 'foo.cpu' alert I got paged twice, with the same ACK code.
- I shouldn't have been paged between 11h05 and 12h05, nor after 13h00, for
'foo.procs'

Any clue ?

Thanks...
