Clearing the alert occurs as part of polling the interface, so if you don't run the poller code, it doesn't run check_entities(), which is where the alert state is updated.
I'm not sure how we'd work around that :)

I’m getting the same issue and I’m pretty sure its SQL config related though I don’t know much past that. For example if I add a new device, I will get alerts for ports in the Admin up / physical down as I’m checking for that with an alert checker. That’s to be expected as I haven’t had a chance to turn off alerting on interfaces I don’t care about yet. Once it polls I turn off polling/alerting on interfaces (such as access ports)
So if I go in and turn polling/alerting off on those interfaces I’d assume the alerts would clear. However the alerts persist and keep firing even if I have them turned off on those specific interfaces. I have figured out I can manually clear these alerts by restarting the mysql service.
Here is part of the poller run (not sure if you want it all)
