This check is currently alerting if the file is 4h old, but we've discovered that it can be validly older than that. Can we adjust the check to wait until the file is 6h old before alerting?

Sounds like you only want an alert when intervention is needed. Instead of the 2 thresholds, should we just alert when the file_age breaks the 6hr mark period?

Assuming alert = IRC notications, WFM!

Alert meaning, as the alert is currently configured. If you want this check to only alert IRC, I think the Warning and Critical thresholds are fine as is. Warning @ 4hrs is a heads-up, Critical @ 6hrs means intervention is needed. members currently getting the alerts, 'buildduty' is the IRC bot 'relengapi,buildteam,buildduty,nthomas,bhearsum,coop,armenzg,catlee,asasaki,raliiev,jhopkins,hwine,jwood,catlee,coop'

OK, so it's actually the warning @ 4h that we want to change. We'd rather have something at 6h, and nothing before that. WARNING/CRITICAL doesn't really have a useful meaning here. > > members currently getting the alerts, 'buildduty' is the IRC bot > 'relengapi,buildteam,buildduty,nthomas,bhearsum,coop,armenzg,catlee,asasaki, > raliiev,jhopkins,hwine,jwood,catlee,coop' That looks fine.

buildbot-master65 was decommissioned and this check was moved to buildbot-master74 in Bug 987793. I've modified the thresholds so that they alert only at 6h.
