analysis.cfg: connection test

Hello all,

I have the following in my analysis.cfg:

HOST=HOST.DOMAIN.ORG
        DS conn tcp.conn.rrd:sec >0.03 COLOR=red TEXT="Response time &V exceeds &U seconds"

It should the Xymon-test let go to red if the response time exceeds 30 milliseconds - this is working.

My problem is, that I would need Xymon to go red if this persist for more than i. e. 5 minutes. Would that be possible?
I've looked in the man page of analysis.cfg, but I didn't find something about such a feature. I know from alerts.cfg there's a keyword "DURATION".
I think that would be something around what I would need here...

Does Xymon have this feature and I just didn't find it until now?
Or would it be better to let Xymon go yellow it the above matches and configure the needed mechanism in the alerts.cfg?
I. e. send out an eMail-notification if the yellow status persists for more than 5  minutes?

Regards
Christian

Christian,

DURATION is in alerts.cfg - sets a delay before notification of red
status is alerted.
http://xymon.com/xymon/help/manpages/man5/alerts.cfg.5.html

delayred is in hosts.cfg - defers update to red on test status
http://xymon.com/xymon/help/manpages/man5/hosts.cfg.5.html

David.
