<p class="MsoNormal">Hi,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Have a quick question/observation for the gurus… Currently migrating my Hobbit 4.2.0 to 4.3.5. And something I noticed is that my e-mail alerts do not happen as frequently on the new box. Here is the situation:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Host goes down at 10:15:00 – email sent<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Host comes up at 10:16:00 – recovery email sent<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">And it is very regular like this on the old box no matter how many times it happens.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">On the new box it does not happen all the time I looked at the host history and I see that it went down and came back up but I never got an e-mail.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Any place I can look to troubleshoot the source (xymon, postfix, etc)<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Or maybe something else I should check?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The reason I’m noticing is that I have some hosts being conn tested on both the old and new box and I had flapping going on yesterday and the new box was very lax about e-mailing alerts so I’m afraid that I may have misconfigured something.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Let me know what other info I can provide but here is the basics:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Old: Centos 5 using sendmail for the smtp<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">New: Centos 6 using postfix for the smtp<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I replicated the alerts.cfg the same as the old server to make sure all is as same as possible<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Thank you,<br>
