FW: Having some issues getting email alerts to come
HI Larry. Thanks for the tips. I've modified it and actually found an error on the email address in the alerts.cfg file.
In the macro definition, there was a double @domain.com – eg where it said html_mail.pl srm_infrastructure at domain.com<mailto:srm_infrastructure at domain.com>@domain.com
That must have got stuck on there when I was editing the file with nano and doing some cut/paste operations.
In any case, I'm getting all kinds of email now.
Regards,
Don K

You need to specify a 'GROUP' in your alerts.cfg stanza:
#Rule and Recipient for all host cpu disk mem proc alerts GROUP=SRMINFRA SERVICE=cpu,disk,mem,proc TIME=W:0800:1600 RECOVERED $SRMINFRA
I'm also not too sure that giving the macro and the group the same name is such a good idea.
Thanks, Larry Barber

I started to try and clean up alerting and emails in our environment from xymon.
I just want to get email alerts for CPU, Mem, and Disk from any host we have and send it to a single email group, but am not getting any emails even though the hosts are showing red alerts on the xymon web pages.
Here is what I put in analysis.cfg
host=* TIME:W:0800:1600
#Setting for this rule is the value to watch LOAD PROC CPU DISK etc DISK * 90 95 GROUP=SRMINFRA LOAD 8.0 12.0 GROUP=SRMINFRA PROC cron GROUP=SRMINFRA
DEFAULT # These are the built-in defaults. UP 1h LOAD 5.0 10.0 GROUP=SRMINFRA DISK * 90 95 GROUP=SRMINFRA MEMPHYS 100 101 MEMSWAP 50 80 MEMACT 90 97
Here is what I put in alerts.cfg #Macro definition $SRMINFRA=SCRIPT /home/xymon/server/ext/html_mail.pl<http://html_mail.pl> srm_infrastructure at domain.com<mailto:srm_infrastructure at domain.com> FORMAT=TEXT
#Rule and Recipient for all host cpu disk mem proc alerts SERVICE=cpu,disk,mem,proc TIME=W:0800:1600 RECOVERED $SRMINFRA
Any guidance appreciated.
Thanks
