  * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION:                                         *
  * When a full probe is running and a mini probe is started and *
  * finishes before the full probe completes, alerts generated   *
  * during the full probe are not sent. This means important     *
  * notifications can be missed if probes overlap, which reduces *
  * the reliability of monitoring and may delay action on        *
  * critical conditions. This issue is affecting all the alert   *
  * policies.                                                    *
