I seem to be having a problem with alerts being send too often now
(alert added below).
These are part of a ping that should not send more than once an hour.
I have the mon.cf set up with what I think is correct, but maybe I am
missing something. (mon.cf below).
I have it set to alert every 60minutes, but I get them about every 5
minutes. In reading the doc's I noticed the results have to be the
same for each entry otherwise it resents. I noticed the fping entries
in my log are different.
Would that be causing it?
I was just manually doing the fping to see if I get output back each
time (or occassionally), but some damn fool actually went and reset the
node on me - so its up.
This is the alert I get
---------------------------------------------
