based on the day I would use crontab

but I obviously didn't get the questions because I didn't even recognize the
IGNORE switch

always trying to create the wheel instead of reading the docs I guess :)

oops, accidentally sent that one, damn touch pad :)

what I meant to finish is you only mention which services you would like to
receive alerts for

HOST=hostname
   MAIL bill (at) microsoft.com RECOVERED REPEAT=60 COLOR=red SERVICE=http


If it's based on time of day or some other criteria, then I think that
hobbit-alerts.cfg resolves environment variales
Or just create a small sed script to change lines in hobbit-alerts.cfg ..
like :

#!/bin/bash
file="/usr/lib/hobbit/server/etc/hobbit-alerts.cfg"
OLDTEXT="SERVICE=.*$"
NEWTEXT="http,ssh"
if [ -f $file ]; then
   sed "s/^$OLDTEXT/$NEWTEXT/g" < $file >/tmp/$$ && mv /tmp/$$ $file
fi

This replaces everything from SERVICE to end of line with what you put in
NEWTEXT for all lines in the file

This will only change the first occurrence
sed "s/^$OLDTEXT/$NEWTEXT/" < $file >/tmp/$$ && mv /tmp/$$ $file

an easier sed search and relplace can also be just
sed  -e 's/*oldtext*/newtext/' <filename>


Hope this helps,
wasn't quite sure what you ment

Do you want to ignore these permanently
Or randomly ?
Or based on what day it is ?

Of course permanently is easy

Hi !

I've got in my hobbit-alerts.cfg
many HOST and PAGE/SUBPAGE rules ...

Now i need (at the top i think)
one rule, which disable alerting of some Services
for all hosts ..

My first attempt is at the top

IGNORE SERVICE=test1,test2,test3

.. i thought, that's it .. but now, my mailmaster
is angry because many mails hanging around in the  mail-queue

with IGNORE (at) desy.de ....

Any hint ?

thanks & cheers,

      Martin
