[hobbit] Alert Setup Question

[Jason Chambers]

Wow, I don't deal with that kind of complexity. Maybe you can hack up
some type of DEPENDS list?

Okay, let me run a scenario...

7:00 HostA generates an alert which gets sent to pageme at here.com
7:05 HostB generates an alert which does not get sent to pageme at here.com
because they got paged in the 15 minutes
7:18 HostA is fixed now, but HostB is still broken and generating an
alert,
which gets sent to pageme at here.com
7:22 HostC breaks now, no Alert to pageme at here.com
7:33 HostB is still Broken, sends an alert to pageme at here.com

Duration is for how old the alert is
Delay - I haven't seen any documentation on this.

In BigBrother it's called pagedelay and was configured in
bbwarnsetup.cfg,
in my case, for 15 minutes.

Does that help?
