SCRIPT alert problem with SERVICE=

[Ron Rosenkoetter]

I'm having problems understanding how matching is done by hobbit for
sending alerts via the SCRIPT command. I have separated out the services
I want to monitor into two different SCRIPT events, because we want to
monitor disk and connection alerts 24/7, but cpu, mem, tbntp, and procs
only during the day.

Here's the appropriate part of the hobbit-alerts.cfg file

PAGE=KC/KC-Test
   SCRIPT /home/hobbit/server/ext/mail-format-alert.py SERVICE=disk,conn
DURATION>1m REPEAT=20 COLOR=yellow,red RECOVERED TIME=W:0000:2359
   SCRIPT /home/hobbit/server/ext/mail-format-alert.py
SERVICE=cpu,mem,tbntp,procs DURATION>1m REPEAT=20 COLOR=yellow,red
RECOVERED TIME=W:0700:1700
   MAIL ron at whatever.com SERVICE=cpu,mem,tbntp,procs DURATION>1m
REPEAT=20 COLOR=yellow,red RECOVERED TIME=W:0000:2359
   MAIL ron at whatever.com SERVICE=conn,disk DURATION>1m REPEAT=20
COLOR=yellow,red RECOVERED TIME=W:0700:1700


However, whenever hobbit generates ANY alert it matches on both SCRIPT
lines, and sends the alert twice. It doesn't appear to care about the
SERVICE parameter.

Here's the results I get when running a test alert

../bin/bbcmd hobbitd_alert --test test2003 cpu 500

Note that it works properly with MAIL; the service doesn't match in line
128 and hobbit doesn't generate a MAIL event.

So what's going on with SERVICE and the SCRIPT event? Any help would be
appreciated.
