Yep, and they are globally enabled as well.

Global event handlers are different than check-based event handlers.

Can you make your event handler echo the date to a file in /tmp ? I would like to see if it is actually running but not logging, or if it is not running at all.

Good call, it is writing to the file, so it just isn't being logged.

I made an internal feature request for event handlers to be logged to the event log. I do not know if this is a bug, or just a missing feature. Thanks for the heads up as always Bandit.
Will we see you at the world conference this year?

That is a better possibility now that I work for a company that actually makes a profit :) The steel mill I worked at before, well...yeah...

That, plus now I am ONLY doing monitoring here.
