I tried both ways and none worked. :-(
testing with xymond_alert work fine:
/usr/lib64/xymon/server/bin/xymond_alert --debug --test xymon1 disk
--group=UNIX_TEAM_PARTITION

So xymond_client should have the problem but I don't know how to test it.

Hi,
I'm trying to configure GROUP alerts but I can't get it to work.
alerts.cfg and analysis.cfg has this content:
analysis.cfg:
HOST=xymon1
LOAD 10.0 13.0 GROUP=UNIX_TEAM_PARTITION
DISK / 20 24 GROUP=UNIX_TEAM_PARTITION
DEFAULT
# These are the built-in defaults.
UP 1h
LOAD 5.0 10.0
DISK * 90 95
MEMPHYS 100 101
MEMSWAP 50 80
MEMACT 90 97
alerts.cfg:
GROUP=UNIX_TEAM_PARTITION
MAIL user-340accf16858@xymon.invalid FORMAT=TEXT RECOVERED
'info' test shows "no alerts defined" and indeed no mail is sent even if
disk test is raising a panic alert.
best regards, ****
