retrydelay issue ?

[Jeremy Kister]

i recently implemented a perl test that argus tests via snmp every 6 hours.

frequency:      120
retrydelay:     60
[...]
           Service UDP/SNMP {
                  label:          perltest
                  frequency:      21600
                  retries:        1
                  eqvalue:        1
                  oid:            .1.3.6.1.4.1.4502.66.1.1
           }
[...]

the test failed, and argus alarmed.  I fixed the problem, and expected argus
to realize it was fixed within 60 seconds -- it hadnt.  from debugging:

srvc::frequency 21600
srvc::lasttesttime Sat 7 Feb 01:02:15 2004
srvc::nexttesttime Sat 7 Feb 07:01:15 2004
srvc::phi 75
srvc::reason SNMP error - invalid OID
srvc::retries 1
srvc::retrydelay 60


have i misconfigured something, or is something else wrong ?
