[Xymon] Question regarding definition of groups....

[Tom Moore]

I don't believe so based on the 'man hobbit-alerts.cfg/alerts.cfg' page.   I was only answering your question in terms of the DURATION option.  I don't see where you can define aliases for your email addresses.

GROUP=groupname  Rule  matching  an  alert by the group name. Groupnames are assigned to a status via the GROUP setting in the analysis.cfg
       file.

I don't believe that's what you want.


I've always just used the mail inline, i.e

HOST=%something.* COLOR=RED SERVICE=disk
MAIL dba at host.com,someoneelse at somewhere.com FORMAT=TEXT DURATION>120

Should alert the DBA team after it's been red for 120 mins.

Okay,


I Added this to the hobbit-alerts.cfg



               ## GROUP Definitions

               GROUP=UNIX_TEAM

                      MAIL Team at domain.name<mailto:Team at domain.name> FORMAT=TEXT

               GROUP=DBA

                      MAIL DBA at domain.name<mailto:DBA at domain.name> FORMAT=TEXT





Added this for cat to hobbit-clients.cfg



HOST=cat

        DISK /export/depot 100 101

        DISK /mnt/testA GROUP=UNIX_TEAM

        DISK /mnt/testB GROUP=DBA


Now, I want to alert the first group upon the alert going red, then alert the second team after two hours.

How do I accomplish this.
