Great work around if you have a small amount of devices to make changes on.
I have 2949 devices that need to have this hot fix applied to.  Any chance
anyone from Ipswitch is willing to let me ftp some maps to help me out.  :-)

TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE!!  (for my implementation)  A rollback will be
required.  I have guys ignoring their pagers because of 'CRY WOLF' syndrome.
Imagine a wide area network where you have a several hundred devices, with
two or more services monitored, spread out on a many many maps.  Missing a
ping here and there causes pager havoc.

Shoulda waited another week to beta-test. :(
