Alarms.cfg REPEAT=Minutes not working?

It's always worked for me.

Can you show us the line(s) that are the rule in and around line 122 of alerts.cfg?

I am seeing in the Alarm.log file that my REPEAT value in alarms.cfg is not being picked up.

:::Log:::
2012-09-24 18:52:16 Ignored unknown/unexpected token 'REPEAT=720' at line 122

Man pages says
REPEAT

How often an alert gets repeated. As with the DURATION setting, this is in minutes


So I was expecting 1 alarm and then it holds for 12 hours until alarms again for the same failure.

Has anyone had issues with this working as it should or may I have the syntax wrong?
