{bb} pagelevelsrecovered ?

[Daniel J McDonald <dan.mcdonald@austinenergy.com>]

I'd like to change the way a "recovered" state is determined.
Currently, I've got:
pagetype: event
pagelevels: red
pagerecovered: TRUE

Unfortunately, this assumes that green, yellow, blue, clear, and purple
are all "good" statuses that require an up-page.  I'd like an option
like:

pagerecoveredlevels: green,blue

That would not send the recovered page unless the state went back to
"green" or was placed in maintenance.


A couple of examples where this would be handy:

1.  I monitor UPS's for time on battery.  Once the battery is exhausted,
I can't pick up any more readings from it, so there are no more updates
and it turns purple.  That sends a "recovered" page!

2.  I monitor temperature probes.  If the temperature is hovering near a
set-point, it will page repeatedly as it swings up and down around the
red point.  What I would prefer is to page when it turns red, assume it
is still down at yellow, and then finally page recovered when it turns
green.


I don't mind writing code to do what needs to be done, but I don't
really have a clue how the paging routines are put together, or even
where to look.  But if someone has already done this, I'd appreciate a
point in the right direction.
