Alerting during downtime window

Hi,
 
I have an issue where hobbit is sending alerts for hosts during the
planned downtime window for the host.
We reboot various windows servers during the night and randomly will be
paged at 02:00.
Has anyone seen this before. It seems to be worst after restarting the
hobbit services.
 
Thanks
 
Craig Boyce

Could you show us an example of your bb-hosts entry for one of the hosts
that suffer from this ? Perhaps combined with the entry from the
notifications.log file to get the precise timestamp.

Craig,
We've been seeing this for the last few months, but it has usually had some
relationship to passing midnight. All alerts past midnight get sent
regardless of the downtime. As a side note, this behavior is sporadic and
seems to have something to do with our unplanned restarts of the Hobbit
daemon (server reboot). We are working to stabalize our Hobbit platform
before debugging this further. Let me know what you find.

Best,
Brian

Hi,

I gathered the bb-hosts and notifications log info together and upon
pasting it into the mail message I realised that the time stamps were
out by an hour, It seems that with day light savings this server never
updated the time.
I have now fixed this, My apologies for posting such a stupid issue.

Thanks

Craig
