Acknowledgements and page color.
list Grant Taylor
Hi, Is there any way to have the page color go back to green when a yellow / red / purple is acknowledged? Or will the page color always and forever reflect the worst color (purple -> yellow -> red) on the page? -- Grant. . . . unix || die

This isn't something currently there, but I could see adding it in in the future as an option or toggle. For the moment, the distinction here between one Ack'd and one a page-viewer "doesn't need to care about" would be achieved by sending a "Disabled until OK" message, which sets the color to the non-alerting Blue. -jc

That would be nice to have. :-)

Yep, that's what we've been doing. But I figured I'd stop and ask instead of doing the same thing has always been done out of ignorance. -- Grant. . . . unix || die

I should clarify that I was referring to the individual status pages for a host (pulled live via svcstatus.cgi, or a static HTML generation if enabled). If you want to prevent an entire *page* from reflecting the worst status if that status has been acked, you can pass the --nopropack=* option to xymongen in your tasks.cfg entry.
