Hi all,
I'd like to know if there is any way to configure alerts based on OS.
I'd thought to change the hosts.cfg file and add a .win, .lin or .aix on the end of the hostname then use CLIENT and NAME parms to keep it working.
That would then have enabled me to use host=*.lin etc in the alerts.cfg file.
Unfortunately when I do this any centrally configured tests (i.e cpu, disk. Mem etc) turn purple after a while even though, when clicked on, the underlying layer is green and showing current data.
We have a mix of Linux, AIX and Windows hosts and it would be really useful to me to be able to send alerts to different groups depending on the OS, however our server names don't comply to any standard that would allow me to use a regex to accomplish this.
Has anyone any ideas how I might make this work.
Thanks,
