I had a system go red today on disk space,

but it didn't alert anyone, not even me, and I'm

setup to receive all alerts.

 
This is at the top of hobbit-alerts.cfg 

 
HOST=*

    MAIL user-e76417e802de@xymon.invalid REPEAT=15 COLOR=RED DURATION<30 RECOVERED

 
Here's the DB Folks:

 
HOST=%ddu* SERVICE=conn,disk

   MAIL user-473b5a1c6a33@xymon.invalid REPEAT=15 COLOR=RED DURATION<30 RECOVERED

 
HOST=%dpu* SERVICE=conn,disk

   MAIL user-473b5a1c6a33@xymon.invalid REPEAT=15 COLOR=RED DURATION<30 RECOVERED

 
(The hosts dpu and ddu are database production unix, and database
development unix)

 
Anyone have any ideas on were I can track 

this down at? Why it didn't page anyone.

 
I checked the notification file in /var/log/hobbit,

and it showed no page going on. Not sure why.

This was a database server, so I've got folks asking

why they didn't get notified that the disk was full.

I found out when I came in this morning and looked

at the Display page.

 
Thanks...James

Hi,

Have you tried testing using

bbcmd hobbitd_alert --test dpu disk --color=red

If so, do you have a line with something like

Mail alert with command 'mail -s "Hobbit [546545] dpu:disk CRITICAL (RED)" user-e76417e802de@xymon.invalid

If not, then there's something wrong in your alert specification.

HTH

Cheers,
Gildas
