We have seen a condition where an outage will clear but remain in the
Outages list on the main page.

This seems to be due to a race condition in the "interface down" and
"interface up" logic. In a short outage (i.e. 30 seconds) on a busy
machine, the "interface up" thread completes first. Since there is no
matching "interface down" (it completes milliseconds afterwards) the
outage is not cleared.

We are working on it.
