Subject: RE: [hobbit] Alert Setup Question
Now for the rest of my email....
Okay,
I'm working on getting my alerts setup.
My current hobbit-alert.cfg is:
$IGNPAT=%(annex-nw|gozo|mis-server)
EXHOST=$IGNPAT
MAIL user-c102b8958c7a@xymon.invalid REPEAT=5m
EXHOST=$IGNPAT,%sps* TIME=*:0800:1700
MAIL user-99ffe2bb97cc@xymon.invalid REPEAT=15m FORMAT=SMS
MAIL user-24a445068ef7@xymon.invalid REPEAT=15m FORMAT=SMS
I need to have it email the pager group for the first alert in a
15minute
window, and then for 15minute intervals.
Suggestions?
