Missing Up alerts?

[Steve Micallef]

Hi all,

I've come across a problem in using mon, specifically to do with the
receiving of Up alerts.

My mon configuration:

[ snip ]

maxprocs    = 100
histlength = 100
randstart = 60s
dtlogging = yes
dtlogfile = /var/log/mon_dtlog
syslog_facility = mail

hostgroup XXXX 1.2.3.4 5.6.7.8 9.10.11.12 13.14.15.16

watch XXXX
    service XXXX
    description XXXXX
        interval 5m
        monitor XXXX.monitor
        period wd {Mon-Sun}
                alert mail.alert [EMAIL PROTECTED]
                upalert mail.alert [EMAIL PROTECTED]
                alert db.alert
                upalert db.alert
                alertevery 1h

[ snip ]

Note: I've XXX'd things because this problem occurs across all services.

If a service fails, I get notification for it. However, occasionally
(seemingly more prevalent in mass-outages), when the service comes back
up, I receive no up notification. When using mon.cgi to look through the
alert history, I see that the alert was done, but not the upalert.

Any help would be appreciated.

Regards,
