Should Blue State Stop Notifications?

Recently we moved all of our oracle databases to an Oracle Database Appliance (ODA).  Unfortunately, on one database, some java bugs prevented a stored procedure from running correctly.  The decision was made to point all the processes back to the "old" server and now the database on the ODA goes up and down as they DBAs test. I dutifully put it in a blue state but I still get emails telling me when it goes down.

Is this correct behavior?

I run a shell script on the ODA that checks the status of each database and sends it to XYMon.
