some alerts don't work as expected.
[snip config and summary of sent alerts]
I think there are 2 false errors :
- for each 'foo.cpu' alert I got paged twice, with the same ACK code.
- I shouldn't have been paged between 11h05 and 12h05, nor after 13h00, for
'foo.procs'
Could you try running "bbcmd hobbitd_alert --test foo cpu" ?

Also, if you add the option "--cfid" to the hobbitd_alert commandline
in hobbitlaunch.cfg, it will include the linenumber of the
hobbit-alerts.cfg file with each alert. That should make it easier to
track down what rules trigger an alert.
