[Xymon] not receiving alerts

Here's my new alerts.cfg file. It didn't change anything though. I'm still not receiving alerts. To force a trouble situation I've got a line in my hosts file that's checking for ssh on a machine that has it turned off so it will cause a red alert.

HOST=* MAIL support at innovateteam.com COLOR=red RECOVERED NOTICE

Thank you.

Try having the HOST entry on one line, and the other entries on another line:

HOST=*

MAIL support at innovateteam.com RECOVERED NOTICE

(I don’t know if your color keyword is valid with the commas)

The documentation says that the first line is the host line, the other lines are one per recipient. So you could have:

HOST=*

            MAIL first-line-support at example.com COLOR=yellow

DURATION>10m NOTICE RECOVERED

            MAIL second-line-support at example.com COLOR=yellow

DURATION>1h NOTICE RECOVERED

            MAIL support-manager at example.com COLOR=yellow DURATION>5h

NOTICE RECOVERED

            MAIL second-line-support at example.com COLOR=red NOTICE

RECOVERED

            MAIL support-manager at example.com COLOR=red DURATION>120m

NOTICE RECOVERED

Hope that helps.
