Bug or Undesired behavior on restart - Xymon 4.2.3

[Clark, Sean]

I have come across a funny issue, and am wondering if it's a bug - it certainly doesn't seem to be the desired behavior, and I wonder if anyone can help me with it.


Here is the scenario

I have a device that is configured in hobbit-alerts.cfg like this:

PAGE=%foodev/foocmt 
 SCRIPT=/sw/xymon/server/scripts/briefEmailRegularImportance noc at foo.com REPEAT=60 COLOR=red RECOVERED
 SCRIPT=/sw/xymon/server/scripts/FullEmailRegularImportance engineer at foo.com DURATION>20 REPEAT=60



It turns red, and calls the first script 

The person who got the first email sends a hobbitdack with the proper cookie for the test/pair and it all is well

2 hours pass - it has not called the second line, because it is "ack'd"


I restart Xymon -- it loads the hobbitdboard from the .chk file, that host/test pair has same cookie, same ack message BUT - it instantly calls both scripts as soon as it comes online - even thought it had been "acked"

Has anyone seen this/found a workaround/know what I mean?
