  1. Restarting on HUP signal
  2. hostmon lists high disk usage
Restarting on HUP signal
When a HUP signal is sent to a monitoring daemon, it does not restart the sites which were modified, but instead restarts the entire process (all events get reset to Unknown).
Preferred behaviour is that only the modified site should be affected.
This is due to the way in which the output datafile are written and the difficulty in detecting changes only. On the todo list

Hostmon lists high disk usage
Some users have reported that hostmon will occasionally list a disk as being full whereas the disk is not.
This seems to be due to a bug in the regular expression for parsing the output of hostmon-client. More info required.
