Henrik,

Thanks for the reply, the alert is being picked up on the following line

    MAIL=support SERVICE=aq COLOR=RED FORMAT=SMS DURATION>5 REPEAT=1h
TIME=W:0900:1700 STOP

Which is line 130 of the hobbit-alert.cfg file.  The thing is that it
just alerted me at 18:10, which is outside of the TIME setting for this
entry.  Any ideas as to what to try next?  Here's the notifications log
entries for that alert

Mon May 29 18:11:05 2006 server.aq (10.8.2.1) systems 1148922665 0
Mon May 29 18:11:05 2006 server.aq (10.8.2.1) support 1148922665 0

Hobbit has been running fine and we've starting making finer grained control on the alerts so that we don't get paged out of hours for stuff that we don't need to deal with.  Below is the hobbit-alerts
entries.
The problem is that last night at 03:30am we were called out for an alert on the aq service which according to how the alert is setup should only be paging us between 0900 and 1700 weekdays.  This is on 4.2PRE, we have newer snapshots running in test but I don't want to upgrade this platform unless I have to as it is running completely stable except for this TIME problem.
Please add "--cfid" to the hobbitd_alert CMD line in hobbitlaunch.cfg.
Next time this happens, the subject of the alert will include a
"[cfid:NUMBER]" text which is the line-number of your hobbit-alerts.cfg
configuration that triggered this alert.

Also, it would be interesting to see your notifications.log entries for
these alerts.


Regards,
Henrik
