Hi All,

How do I set up alerting so that it will send alerts immediately between
07:00 and 22:00, but with a 15 minute delay (if the test still turns red)
outside those hours.

With BigSister I'm used to set up alerting in one file. But am I right that
with Hobbit you might have to setup a few things in hobbit-alerts.cfg and in
bb-hosts?

Thanks!

You can set this up in hobbit-alerts.cfg alone.  It would be something like:

HOST=myhost TIME=*:0700:2200
    MAIL user-50e7d30f429b@xymon.invalid
HOST=myhost TIME=*:2201:0659 DURATION>14m
    MAIL user-50e7d30f429b@xymon.invalid

...and if you want only red alerts outside of 7a-10p, add COLOR=red to the
second "HOST=..." line.
