00018172 2006-04-05 11:42:36 Failed 'MAIL techsupt at localhost UNMATCHED DURATION>6m REPEAT=4h' (min. duration 0<360)
So if I'm reading this correctly, my 'duration>6m' is being interpreted
as 'duration>6h'. The intent here is to require two failed tests before
paging. Where have I gone wrong?
You're not reading it correctly. When you put DURATION>6m into the
config, Hobbit internally converts that into 360 seconds. The output you
see means that the current duration of the alert (0 seconds) - was less
than the minimum duration required (360 seconds).
I cannot recall if the test option in 4.0.3 allows you to specify the
duration for the test-alert; with newer version you can, and then you'd
see the the "0" change accordingly.
