All you need in server/etc/hobbit-alerts.cfg is something like this:

 

HOST=integration MAIL john (at) dear.com COLOR=yellow,purple,red

 

Don't worry about what the page/subpage or whatever.  Just the hostname
as defined in bb-hosts.

With this hobbit naming issue coming up it looks like I asked a question
at the wrong time.  ;)

 

This may be much easier... could somebody cut'n'paste part of their
hobbit-alerts.cfg here that uses email for alerts.  If you have some
with subpages that would be most excellent.

 

Thanks and everyone have a great weekend!

I just cannot figure how to set up alerts.  

 

Maybe I can save you lots of reading... All I am trying to do at this
time I am just looking to set up basic paging to an email (list)
address. 

 

I will want to break it down to subpages for fabric servers, DB servers,
web servers and weblogic server.

 


But... here is what I am working with now.  For now I have, or so I
thought, narrowed it down to the most basic of configuration and still
cannot get it to work.

 

 

hobbit-alerts.cfg (added to the bottom of the file).

 

HOST=*

        MAIL root (at) localhost     SERVICE=conn    color=yellow

        MAIL root (at) localhost     SERVICE=cONN    color=red

        MAIL root (at) localhost     SERVICE=conn    color=purple

 

 

 

When I run bbcmd with just --test I get the following:

 

[root (at) tstfabric121 etc]# ../bin/bbcmd hobbitd_alert --test
tstfabric121.ce.fedex.com procs

2008-07-31 16:48:03 Using default environment file

With --debug too I get this:

 

[root (at) tstfabric121 etc]# ../bin/bbcmd hobbitd_alert --test --debug
tstfabric121.ce.fedex.com procs

2008-07-31 16:48:43 Using default environment file

00024284 2008-07-31 16:48:43 Failed 'MAIL root (at) localhost
SERVICE=conn    color=purple' (service not in include list)

 

 

 

Now the host, tstfabric121.ce.fedex.com, is in the bb-host file.  And,
in fact, is the hobbit server.

 

 

Also, so long as I am burning bandwidth, I am not understanding how the
page/subpage work into this?  I do have subpage's set up in my bb-hosts
file.

 

 

Thanks.
