External alert script.
list Thomas Pedersen
Hi ! I am writing an external alert script and the initial activatio is ok. But when the service is then recovered I have problems with the correct detection. Looking at http://www.hswn.dk/hobbiton/2005/08/msg00282.html I see that various variables are set when calling the script, but I can not match a RECOVERED string in BBALPHAMSG. Is this due to hobbit alert module identifiyeing the recovery by itself and not letting this on the the script ? Br Thomas

Hi Thomas, in most cases external scripts are running regularly and will send a new status with color=green once the error is recovered. regards rolf

The problem is that the BBCOLORLEVEL is still red when the script is run again, and the BBALPHAMSG is giving service is green OK. A bit strange. Maybe its my perl coding which is not ok.

Recovering alerts have a status of red but have a RECOVERD env' variable set to "1". Sounds like you need to check for this var too.
