Re: alert mail config

[Martin Pala]

Hi,

the mailformat option cannot be used as the action option (i.e. not as extension of "… then alert"), but you can use it in the alert contact settings:

    alert address@hidden with mail-format …

You can also set it globally using the "set mail-format" statement.

You can also alert via http (indirectly) - using the "exec" action to execute your custom script.

Regards,

Martin

Hi All,

 

I have the check below but it would seem monit does not like the second line. Ideally I would like message part to be the same for all the alerts for this check but email address to be different. Is there a way to do this.

 

 

 

check device datafs with path /

    if space usage > 94% for 10 times then alert address@hidden if succeeded for 5 times then alert address@hidden with mail-format{ subject: $SERVICE at $DATE, message: Monit has detected an issue on $HOST @$DATE $DISCRIPTION; the current status is $STATUS}

    if space usage > 96% for 8 times then alert else if succeeded for 2 times then alert

    if space usage > 98% then alert else if succeeded for 2 times then alert

    if space usage > 99% then alert

    group system

 

 

My plan is to use pagerduty to ensure correct routing of the message, it would be even better if I could dispatch the alert via the http api but I am not sure that is possible with monit?

 

Any help gratefully appreciated.,

 

Regards
