UPS Monitor

UPS Monitor

I have 2 questions about the power monitor.

We have a backup Gererator that is tested every week. When testing it it cuts the power to our HP 9000. Therefore, we test the battery backup(UPS) at the same time.
Well, every time they do this I get a CRITICAL alert. This is good! I would not like it to triger right away. I think I can just change the setting in /var/stm/config/tools/monitor/default_dm_ups.clcfg file.
I think I can change the "NOT_USED" to "1" for one minute in these lines.
# EVENT_AC_POWER_FAIL_SD
EQ:1:CRITICAL:TRUE:NOT_USED:ANY:1:NONE:NO_OP:NO_OP:NONE
# EVENT_AC_POWER_FAIL_NOSD
EQ:2:CRITICAL:TRUE:NOT_USED:ANY:1:NONE:NO_OP:NO_OP:NONE
If I do this, is there a demon I have to restart?
The other Question is where do I set the email address to who this thing sends the message? I would like it to send it to my pager.

Oh! 3rd Question.
Is there another place to set these parameters other than hacking in the config file?

The only thing that always remain the same are the changes.
