RECOVERED notification 🔗 link

Hi folks,

I am running XYmon 4.3.12 (self compiled) on a RHEL 6.3 and have a question
about the behaviour of sending "RECOVERED" messages.
I've been forced to send SNMP traps of alerts to a Patrol console and of course
they also want to have "RECOVERED" messages to close these alerts automatically.
But now I've seen in my logs that if someone disables a test that has an alert
another alert trap is being sent out instead of a "RECOVERED" trap.
I.e. I have a server that has an alert in msgs an red alert is sent to Patrol
and the responsible admin is called. He sets the state of msgs to blue for a
certain time and another red alert is sent to Patrol instead of a green trap
saying everything back to normal.
Is this an expected behaviour?
I thought even blue would trigger a recovery message since I have the following
lines in my xymonserver.cfg:

ALERTCOLORS="red,yellow,purple"                 # Colors that may trigger an
alert message
OKCOLORS="green,blue,clear"                     # Colors that may trigger a
recovery message

Any help would be appreciated.

Regards
Torsten

Ok,

forget about this question. Found the answer by reading the manpage of
alerts.cfg instead of relying on the comments in alerts.cfg itself.

manpage:

RECOVERED Is "0" if the service is alerting, "1" if the service has recovered,
"2" if the service was disabled.

alerts.cfg:

#    RECOVERED     - Is "1" if the service has recovered.

Sorry for the noise
Torsten
