Sorry to take so long to reply. I wanted to make sure I had accurate
information.

You are right. There was a problem above that statement that I fixed.

I set argus to check two webservers, and as a test I set it to check a
nonexistent service on each server. It notifies me every 5 minutes via
email (postfix) as it should for about 1.5 days and then stops notifying
me. Yet argus is still running, and I can manually send messages via
postfix so I know it is still healthy. Everything looks normal:
argusctl status:
ARGUS/2.0 200 OK
status: running
version: 3.5
perlver: 5.8.8
osinfo: Darwin 8.10.0 Power Macintosh
darpmode: disabled
objects: 20
services: 14
notifies: 2
uptime: 1d 19:11:33
idle: 99.81% 99.81% 99.81%
monrate: 0.09 0.09 0.09 per second
ps -ax |grep Argus
8778 ?? Ss 0:00.00 Argus
8779 ?? S 5:31.99 Argus
This behavior is consistent over repeated tests. ~1.5 days and no more
notifications. But I just noticed that when I check the "notifications"
button in the web interface I don't see any recent notifications listed.
Only some from a previous test a few weeks ago. That is the best I can
describe it. Any help is appreciated.
