I may be missing a config step here... I am getting alerts that show up with
zero for the numeric code. At the same time, I get the standard numeric

Hobbit [0] sac-pdbs-01.mydomain.com:cpu warning (YELLOW)
Hobbit [831423] monitor.mydomain.com:hobbitd warning (YELLOW)
Hobbit [924556] monitor.mydomain.com:bbgen warning (YELLOW)
Those numbers are not service-codes, unless this is from some script
you've created for alerting - they are alert cookies, the number you use
for acknowledging an alert.
It's quite allright - albeit unusual, but it depends on the random()
number generator in your system library - for the cookie to be zero.
