Hi guys,

After struggling to get the SNMP traps to recognise the custom MIB files I have 
now setup 100+ passive service checks for monitoring my backup jobs.

Each check has 3 rules to update as follows:
TRAP RULE                                                                       
                                                                                
                                                                   RESULT
"${TRAPNAME}" eq "Backup-Exec-MIB::jobSuccess" && ${V7} eq "AMS-SVR-SQL1-GS 
AMS-SVR-SQL1-Daily"                       OK
"${TRAPNAME}" eq "Backup-Exec-MIB::jobSuccessExcept" && ${V7} eq 
"AMS-SVR-SQL1-GS AMS-SVR-SQL1-Daily"                WARN
"${TRAPNAME}" eq "Backup-Exec-MIB::jobFailured" && ${V7} eq "AMS-SVR-SQL1-GS 
AMS-SVR-SQL1-Daily"                      CRITICAL

These are working as expected and the status of the checks is changing when the 
jobs are successful, completed with exceptions or failed.

My problem is that I was expecting these to only update once when the trap was 
received and rule matched otherwise it should throw an exception and do nothing 
yet I am seeing that a number of checks are updating at the same time even 
through the rules don't match.

Is this "by design" or am I missing something with the way the rules are setup 
for each job?

Thanks for any help

Matt
