Hi Endre,

the "false" alerts can be caused by multiple things.

The configured alert conditions are basically checked in a fixed interval 
(see alert_check_interval in your Graylog configuration file) by running an 
Elasticsearch query which matches the configured conditions. Since messages 
can contain timestamps which are in the past, it's possible that at the 
time of checking the alert conditions there actually wasn't any message in 
the checked time frame. The message might have been indexed at a later 
point in time.


Cheers,
Jochen
