We’ve been having alert malfunctions today. The monitor daemon has been killed multiple times and reloaded. I even changed the alerts email message and trigger then cycled the monitord, and it’s still sending out the old message and firing erroneously. There is no ghost monitord that I could find with ps -ef |grep monitord

Anyone know know how to resolve this outside of shutting down the site and reloading them on to a new one?

I recognize that you posted this two years ago, and I hope that you found a solution.

Since then I had the same problem and was wondering what the heck was going on, and I don’t think anyone had solved it.

One of the threads that we were getting alerts for was removed but yet the alert remained “alerting” on that thread. Once I removed those old thread remnants  from the alerts the emails ceased.
