Hello,

Our Xymon server is monitoring about a hundred hosts and has been doing 
so nicely for years.  However DURATION rule is being ignored. I have 
several lines like this in alerts.cfg:

SCRIPT <script location> <email address> SERVICE=replication 
DURATION>30m REPEAT=30d COLOR=red,purple

Replication is a custom check. But the alert (scripted email) is being 
sent as soon as the check goes red, not 30 minutes later. Any 
suggestions as to why this could be? Using Xymon 4.3.30.
