Alert message don't change in M/Monit

For example:

check device rootfs with path /
    if inode usage > 80% then alert
    if space usage > 80% then alert

When space usage reach limit, then MMonit recive alert. It work as expected. But when space usage incrase after alarm for example too 95%, 100% then I can't see any difference in MMonit dashboard.

Host localhost reported a problem with rootfs: space usage 82% matches resource limit [space usage>80.0%]

Confirmed in M/Monit 3.4, Monit 5.10 (test environment) and M/Monit 3.3, Monit 5.10 (production environment).

    Monit sends the event only on state change and this event is then stored in the event log and displayed in the dashboard as long as the error is active. It doesn't update the event message when the usage increased further over the quota.

    We see it could be very useful to see the current usage in the dashboard - currently that's not possible by design, we will improve this in the future.

    Putting on hold till the feature will be implemented.
