[Xymon] DOWNTIME specification sometimes not honored ?

[Dominique Frise]

Hi,


We are using Xymon-4.3.28 server on RHEL6.8.


Assuming following definitions/logs :


---extract of alerts.cfg---

$SENDSMS=/opt/xymon/server/bin/sendsms.sh

$MAIL_DEFS=REPEAT=24h RECOVERED
$SMS_DEFS=COLOR=red $MAIL_DEFS TIME=W:1800:0700,60:0701:0700

$MAIL-Test=MAIL test at example.com $MAIL_DEFS
$SMS-Test=SCRIPT $SENDSMS 0123456789 $SMS_DEFS


HOST=myhost

   $MAIL-Test
   $SMS-Test


---hosts.cfg DOWNTIME specification for myhost---                           DOWNTIME=msgs:W:1759:0701:Many_errors_from_WSUS,msgs:60:0000:2359:Many_errors_from_WSUS


---Notification Log---

Mon Feb 13 18:01:57 2017 myhost msgs 0123456789

Mon Feb 13 18:01:57 2017 myhost msgs test at example.com
Mon Feb 13 18:00:10 2017 myhost msgs 0123456789
Mon Feb 13 17:36:58 2017 myhost msgs test at example.com



At 17:36:58, the msgs check fires a CRITICAL mail alert : OK

At 18:00:10 a SMS is sent despite the DOWNTIME specification : ???

At 18:01:57 a "disabled" mail and SMS alerts are sent : mail only should occur


The SMS_DEFS'TIME specification is global and we want to override this for this particuliar host/test but this does not work.

?

Dominique
