I'm getting both red and recovered alerts in my case.  In your case were
you not getting red alerts but you were getting recovered messages?

I'm using Xymon 4.3.28 on CentOS 7.6

Josh,


This may not be your problem but I had issues  in the past similar to
this.  My problem turned out to be how RECOVERED was being handled.  I’m
using xymon 4.3.28 on Redhat 7.6.


I defined this macro at the top of the rule set in alerts.cfg and replaced
all STOP instances with $STOP.


# !!!!!!!!!! IMPORTANT !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

# Define macro to halt any further rule evaluation.

# Both IGNORE and RECOVERED are needed.

$STOP=IGNORE RECOVERED

Just a minor nit-pick - does the actual file have the same typo in the
hostname in the first entry??


     HOST=windows10.imaignenetworksllc.com

Does anyone have a working example of STOP?


The man page says:

#    STOP      - Valid for a recipient: If this recipient gets an

#                alert, recipients further down in alerts.cfg

#                are ignored.


This doesn't seem to be the case, though.  The second and third statements
are happening even though the first has a STOP.


HOST=windows10.imaignenetworksllc.com

  MAIL user-4c45a83f15cb@xymon.invalid COLOR=RED DURATION>60m REPEAT=60
RECOVERED

  STOP
