Alerting Cobnfiguration

Hi Guys If I wanted to make sure a person only got mails on disk,conn and raid columns when they change status(ie any colour) would the following line work? HOST=PRMSBISQl01 SERVICE=conn,disk,raid MAIL user-c6a822dc9e0a@xymon.invalid REPEAT=480 RECOVERED Regards Neil

Hi Guys I found a problem. My host names are all in uppercase(in BBhost, hobbit-client.cfg etc)i.e. DATASERVER1. When I use the uppercase version in the alerting section it does not match the name as the alerting looks for all lowercase i.e. dataserver1 ? Anybody run into this problem before? Regards Neil

I'm sure HOST= in the alert config will need to match case of bb-hosts. I've used all lowercase for everything.

Case is important! However, I have found that as long as the case in the bb-hosts file matches the case in the "HOST=" parameter in the hobbit-alerts.cfg file, there is not a problem. I monitor 555 hosts total. All my windows hosts (~200) are all uppercase. All my unix/linux hosts (~50) are all lower case. My network devices (~300) are mixed upper and lower case. ....Bruce Bruce White Senior Enterprise Systems Engineer | Phone: XXX-XXX-XXXX | Fax: XXX-XXX-XXXX | user-58f975e8bf9d@xymon.invalid | http://www.fellowes.com/ Disclaimer: The information contained in this message may be privileged and confidential and protected from disclosure.

Yeah I thought as much however I ran the ./bin/bbcmd hobbitd_alert --test hostname cpu test it did not match a rule. It reported the host name in lower case and in BBHosts the host was in Upper case. I fixed it with the following regular expression Host=%HOST|host. Strange one but not a train smash.
