Hi,

We would like certain managers to receive alerts when any status change 
from green to purple/yellow/red on the top page.

We've put this directive in hobbit-alert.cfg:

PAGE=/
MAIL user-1e34c4d49f3b@xymon.invalid REPEAT=24h RECOVERED

but the recipient does never get mailed.

What am I missing?

The help details how to test your alert configurations from the command line.

That one is tricky. Page-paths are always relative in Hobbit, so
the "PAGE=/" will never match anything. It would make sense to
allow this, but it doesn't work right now.

PAGE=%^$
	MAIL user-1e34c4d49f3b@xymon.invalid REPEAT=24h RECOVERED

(i.e. using a regular expression to match an empty string) should 
give you the result you want.


Regards,
Henrik
