Scheduling works. What about alerting once per day even if earlier alert is
active ?

HiI have a check program script that I want to run using monit every hour
starting at 12pm PST/ 19 UTC.The script is pretty basic. It gets the current
time , and then execute a SQL query against a mysql db using the current date
to check if a table has data in it (select count (*) from table where date =
$today). If count = 0 it exits with code 0 else with exit code 1.
I have the following config
check program check_table with path /opt/monit/scripts/check_table.sh
every "* 19 * * *" if status != 0 then alert
What this is currently doing is, starting at 12 PM, it executes the script
every 2 mins (my default polling interval ) till 1pm. If it fails at the first
check it raises an alert, and for the subsequent checks it doesn't raise an
alert. I'm guessing there is some throttling in place that prevents monit from
alerting for the same issue more than once. But the problem is when next day
comes and at 12pm
it starts the check again and it fails, I don't get a new alert because there
is already an active alert for this.
How can I solve this problem being able to get at most one alert every day for
this check
