Hi all,

Does anyone have an answer for this?
Is it possible to configure Xymon to send a recovered notification *only* if there was a
corresponding notification that was sent for the initial red state?
If it's not possible, can I make a feature request for a future release?

Thanks,
Ray

I have a question about the RECOVERED flag in alerts.cfg.  Here's an example:

PAGE=somepage COLOR=red
        MAIL user-6130fb8aa491@xymon.invalid DURATION>7 RECOVERED REPEAT=1h


The behavior I'm seeing is that if a test on PAGE=somepage turns red
for less than 7 minutes and then turns green again, we'll get an email
for the recovery but not the initial red state.  Is this the expected
behavior of the RECOVERED flag?  Is it possible to configure Xymon to
send a recovered notification *only* if there was a corresponding
notification that was sent for the initial red state?

Thanks,
Ray
