<p class="MsoNormal">This problem contributed to an outage last night – something is wrong.<u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Last night we had a disk that was in the warning state – warning email sent.

<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">That disk then went into an alert state and an alert email was triggered (right away as the DURATION value took into account the time it was yellow) and then again 15 minutes later as designed.<u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">THEN – another disk on that server went yellow. It did NOT trigger any emails (as expected we should continue to focus on the alerts) but it somehow interfered with the REPEAT time of the alerts and those STOPPED.<u></u><u></u></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">From the notification.log:<u></u><u></u></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Wed Mar 29 05:31:31 2017 ServerA.disk (IP) disk_alert 1490783486 100 <- 1 day after previous warning. This should have been repeated every 15 minutes.<u></u><u></u></p>
