What are the different color codes and letters i.e. (R,S) for alerts on
the info page ?
The "(R)" for a recipient means that he also gets the "Recovered"
notices.
The "(S)" means this recipient is a "Stop" recipient, i.e. you have
used the STOP keyword for this recipient. So if an alert is sent to
this recipient, none of the recipient below will get one.
Why will my normal macro config not work ie $NEWHOSTS=host1,host2 but
$NEWHOSTS=%(host1|host2) works ?
Both should work. Could you try each of the configs and run
"bbcmd hobbitd_alert --dump-config" ? That will show how your
macros are expanded.
HOST=$NEWHOSTS EXSERVICE=trends
Just FYI, the "trends" column can never trigger an alert since it is
always green. In fact, it doesn't exist as a real status as far as
Hobbit is concerned.
Should I upgrade to a newer version ? i have tested the rules with
4.1.2p1 from Nov 24.
That is the latest release.
