Im stuck trying to get this combo running.  
I have been trying different approaches for two days now, and Im getting more confused by the hour.  
The slack connection is working.  
The keepalives keep coming in to slack if I delete a host.  
Im not able to fine tune the behaviour though.

This is what I want in slack:

- Warning if no keepalive after 120s.
- Critical if no keepalive after 180s.
- Reminder (critical) after twelve hours, 24h, 36h etc until fixed.
- Notification when resolved

Im just looking for a working solution, I can skip the fatigue plugin if necessary.

config:  
(no annotations on entities, but I have tried w. those as well)  
(args in parenthesis for fatigue\_check might be off, Im a bit tired and very frustrated right now)

fatigue\_checks handler may need specific agent annotations (`.annotations.fatigue_check/*`) .  
Did you set those annotation for agent ?

Yes, sure,  
fatigue\_check/keepalive\_occurrences: “1”  
fatigue\_check/keepalive\_interval: “3600”

I even tried as arguments, as per docs:  
“These can be set as  
arguments to the `fatigue_check()` function in the filter definition or as  
entity annotations to override the defaults on a per entity basis.”
