Hi All
In bigbrother the following code of maint.pl were able to send a page.
"&bbsend("now","$bbpager","page notify-admin.maint enable\n\nThe f
ollowing at jobs that were scheduled to disable tests have been
CANCELLED\nDate: " . &POSIX_time(
$nowtime) . "\n$cancelledby$notification");"
But in Hobbit I tried with the same code and it did not send any page.
I have HOST=notify-admin SERVICE=maint
MAIL my.email at here
And when I did the ./bin/bbcmd hobbitd_alert --test notify-admin maint,
it matches the rule fine.
However 'man bb' shows 'page HOSTNAME.TESTNAME COLOR <additional text>'.
So for testing I ran
bb 127.0.0.1 "page HOSTNAME.TESTNAME COLOR <additional text>"
but I did not receive any page.
Is that mean I need to have an entry for notify-admin in bb-hosts file?
But that is not a valid hostname. So I am in a predicament now. Is there
a trick/tip to make the page work when using maint.pl?
Thanks
