[hobbit] Alert Setup Question

[Jason Chambers]

I don't understand what you mean

DURATION<5 means that it wont page you if the alert has gone longer that
5 minutes.
DUATION>15 means that it wont page you for the alert until the alert has
gone up for more than 15 minutes.

There is DELAY which wont page you for certain intervals. But I don't
understand what you want to do.

Thanks for the reply.

If I understand DURATION ( DURATION<5m) correctly that says if HostA is
down
for more than five minutes alert, if not do nothing.

I basically want to put a hold on the Alert for that rule for 15minutes
after it's triggered.

In BB they write an entry in /bbvar/notifications with the mail address
with
a timestamp of +15m.  As long as that entry is in there, you won't get
double paged.

I think you want the DURATION tag!

Now for the rest of my email....

Okay,
 I'm working on getting my alerts setup.

My current hobbit-alert.cfg is:
$IGNPAT=%(annex-nw|gozo|mis-server)

EXHOST=$IGNPAT
        MAIL pnixon at ci.somerville.ma.us REPEAT=5m

EXHOST=$IGNPAT,%sps* TIME=*:0800:1700
        MAIL 6175559689 at myairmail.com REPEAT=15m FORMAT=SMS
        MAIL 6175559776 at myairmail.com REPEAT=15m FORMAT=SMS


I need to have it email the pager group for the first alert in a
15minute
window, and then for 15minute intervals.

Suggestions?
