Xymon Yellow alerts not working

Hi,


I have many alerts on my xymon working fine with the color red.

I have configured some yellow color alerts, but they are not working. I check the notifications.log file and it does not show anything for yellow alerts.

Im using xymon 4.3.11


Here ir my alerts.cfg file:


HOST=%.* COLOR=yellow
        SCRIPT $ANALISADOR_BIN xxx at xxx DURATION>1m SERVICE=uptime,cpu,disk
        SCRIPT $ANALISADOR_BIN xxx at xxx REPEAT=1d TIME=$HORARIO_COMERCIAL DURATION>1h SERVICE=ssh,conn,disk,procs,svcs,sonicwall,zextras,zimbra,vmio,tomcat,rhds,raid,mysql,conni,bacula,apache,wb,sqlbkp,mssql,hvrepl,dhcp,dfsr,whois


HOST=%.* COLOR=red
        SCRIPT $ANALISADOR_BIN xxx at xxx REPEAT=1d TIME=$HORARIO_COMERCIAL DURATION>6m SERVICE=bkp,fbbkp,fwcluster,netstat,ntbkp,orabkp,orastb,ssh,standby,uptime,conn,conni,disk,drbd,eth,procs,svcs,vm,kvm,mysql,raid,rdp,rhds,tomcat,bnu,sbkp,snet,mssql,hvrepl,dhcp,dfsr


There is something wrong in my cfg file?
Anyone has the same problem?


Thanks

Hi Bruno,

The syntax looks correct at first glance; though typically the SERVICE
lines are specified on the initial header line, I believe that's still
valid. Can you run "xymoncmd xymond_alert --dump-config" and post the
output? That should show how xymond_alert is interpreting it.

If everything looks good, can you enable debug mode on xymond_alert (send
its PID a -USR2 signal) and trigger a "yellow" notification? We might see
a reason in the output.

Finally, it might be time to upgrade. A number of minor have bug fixes
have gone through since 4.3.11 around parsing generally.

HTH,

Hi JC,

Thanks for de quickly reply

I run the dump config, i have a lot of alerts but look good:

 2069   HOST=%.* COLOR=yellow
        SCRIPT /usr/lib/xymon/server/analisador_de_carga.sh xxx at xxx FORMAT=SCRIPT REPEAT=30 SERVICE=uptime,cpu,disk DURATION>1
        SCRIPT /usr/lib/xymon/server/analisador_de_carga.sh xxx at xxx FORMAT=SCRIPT REPEAT=1440 SERVICE=ssh,conn,disk,procs,svcs,sonicwall,zextras,zimbra,vmio,tomcat,rhds,raid,mysql,conni,bacula,apache,wb,sqlbkp,mssql,hvrepl,dhcp,dfsr,whois TIME=W:0730:1830 DURATION>60

 2074   HOST=%.* COLOR=red
        SCRIPT /usr/lib/xymon/server/analisador_de_carga.sh xxx at xxx FORMAT=SCRIPT REPEAT=1440 SERVICE=bkp,fbbkp,fwcluster,netstat,ntbkp,orabkp,orastb,ssh,standby,uptime,conn,conni,disk,drbd,eth,procs,svcs,vm,kvm,mysql,raid,rdp,rhds,tomcat,bnu,sbkp,snet,mssql,hvrepl,dhcp,dfsr TIME=W:0730:1830 DURATION>6
        

When i run xymond_alert in debug mode, there is no trigger for the item "uptime" that i have tested. In the test i just reboot my machine and the item goes yellow, but no entries on alerts.log

I have attach the log on the email.

There is anything that i could do before upgrade xymon?


Thanks

Interesting. A yellow should at least be sent down the channel. 
What are the values of the ALERTCOLORS and OKCOLORS variables in xymonserver.cfg? If not present, yellow might need to be added to the ALERTCOLORS line.

JC,

The ALERTCOLORS variable has only red and purple.

I add the yellow, restart Xymon and now is working.

Thank you very much
