Hi Robert, weirdly, some of the SW probes are showing as "online" but do not provide any measurements results [event the Built-in ones], such as your mentioned 1000030 [Latest data point shown is from 2019-12-17 11:57 UTC] Also for example measurement https://atlas.ripe.net/measurements/23955368/ shows 18 out of 71 SW probes were online [at the moment when I created the measurement] but never provided any results. In https://atlas.ripe.net/measurements/23962519/ I requested all probes with tag system-software, you can see how many probes are Online while not providing any results.
What I wanted to point out - I run SW probe 1000069 in Turris Omnia router and I noticed the same behavior - after router restart the SW probe goes online and looks fine, but does not send any results, until I restart the ATLAS process manually, then it runs fine until next router's reboot / power cycle.
