I have a test that's gone 'red' multiple times today. I know this
because I've seen it in the website and alerts have been sent to me. Yet
if I look in ~hobbit/data/hist, ~hobbit/data/histlogs, or use the
hsitory CGIs in the web GUI, it shows that it hasn't been 'red' today,
rather that it's been green for >2 days.
The only explanation I can give is that the hobbitd_history module
might have been stopped or crashed when this red status happened.
Could you check the history.log and hobbitlaunch.log files to see if
there's any mention of this ?

Doing a full restart of Hobbit will force a sync of the history logs
with the current status recorded in Hobbit, but it obviously cannot 
record events that are long past.
