Hi there,

I just migrated a script I've written some time ago for Big Brother to
XYmon for creating a special page for our operators.
Thus I'm using the file alert.chk for evaluating the data that will be
displayed on this page.
Today I saw that there was a red icon for a test and when I clicked on
it the page for the test itself was yellow for over 2 hours.
When I grepped for the machine and test in alert.chk I saw that the
color there was set to red. I doublechecked with hobbitd.chk and there
the color was yellow.
I'm talking about the fifth column in alert.chk and the sixth in
hobbitd.chk.
Maybe I should not use alert.chk for getting the data but use
hobbitd.chk instead?
But I was wondering why there are differences between these two files.
Perhaps someone can turn me in the right direction so that I can see the
light :-)

Cheers
Torsten
