Stuck in my monitoring database are ghosts.  I didn't properly remove my usb harddrive so now at 5:50 my alert system hits me via email and IM and tells me I have low disk space.  but I really don't.  See those dates? It's an OLD alert and not a current one.  And I have yet to figure out a way to clear them out of the database other than rebooting the server so it will reset the counter.

So don't worry.. it's nothing to fear.. my server is not possessed... it's just a bit haunted by ghosts that's all.....
