[hobbit] Weird Alerting behavior...bug or expected??

[Eric Meddaugh]

No, I didn't see that email come through, thanks.  There are no rules above it.  I'll have to try testing things.

Did you test your configuration as suggested in this reply ?

Just checking to see again if anyone has experienced this issue/problem???  I haven't seen anything about it.

Thanks.

We have the following the the Alerts file:

# on-call page
$TSSSYS_ONCALL_DAY=SCRIPT /home/hobbit/server/ext/qpage.pl tss_sys_oncall COLOR=red REPEAT=10 TIME=W:0800:1700 RECOVERED
$TSSSYS_ONCALL_OFF=SCRIPT /home/hobbit/server/ext/qpage.pl tss_sys_oncall COLOR=red REPEAT=20 TIME=W:1700:0800 RECOVERED
$TSSSYS_ONCALL_END=SCRIPT /home/hobbit/server/ext/qpage.pl tss_sys_oncall COLOR=red REPEAT=20 TIME=06:*:* RECOVERED

$DUPING=%(mxgate)

HOST=$DUPING SERVICE=conn
        $TSSSYS_ONCALL_DAY
        $TSSSYS_ONCALL_OFF
        $TSSSYS_ONCALL_END



We had a host (mxgate03) go down at 3:15am, it sent 1 initial page, but no follow ups.  No repeats.  Does Monday from 12am-8am fall in a "limbo" timeframe where the 2nd rule does not apply since it's not a Weekday after 5pm, but before 8am???   The host was down for over 3 hours without any follow up pages.

Do I need a rule similar to:

$TSSSYS_ONCALL_MON=SCRIPT /home/hobbit/server/ext/qpage.pl tss_sys_oncall COLOR=red REPEAT=10 TIME=1:0000:0800 RECOVERED



The different rules are suppose to repeat 10 minute during business hours, and 20 minutes off-hours.

Any ideas?  Is this a bug or expected behavior? 

Thanks.
