Chris,
Good day
I have a test that determines I a remote web service is responding.
The webservice is managed by someone outside of my environment.
The test fails a couple of times during the day, manual tests confirm
that the xymon test is ok. The webservice will fail for maybe 30 to 60
minutes then will restore.
If the Xymon test runs while the service is unavailable, I will
receive a alert and by the time I can investigate all is ok.
I added the DURATION>30 or DURATION>1h to the alerts.cnf to only send
me alerts if the service has been down for a period of time, but I
still receive the alert as soon as Xymon detects the problem.
Is there another way to delay alerts or do I have some error in my
configs?
My alerts.cfg uses IGNORE
