[Xymon] Alert script "BBCOLORLEVEL" is red when recovered

[Jeremy Laidman]

I suspect $BBCOLORLEVEL is set to the color of the original condition.

According to the man page for alerts.cfg, if the word &COLOR& is in the
recipient parameter, it is replaced by the colour of the alert. This might
give the updated colour after the alert recovered, instead of the alert
colour.

Or, you can use something like this:

NEWCOL=`$XYMON $XYMSRV "xymondboard host=$BBHOSTNAME test=$BBSVCNAME
fields=color"`

Cheers
Jeremy
