[hobbit] No Alert

[Gildas Le Nadan]

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)" me at myemail.com

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

HTH

Cheers,
Gildas
