When mainmonitor gets one of the traps, I'll see this in

Looks like you've found a logic bug. The code to set the group & service
in handle_trap to default/default has an error which causes it to set the
group but never the service. I just commited a fix for this to CVS.
Jul 11 16:24:49 monitor mon[2017]: trap trap 0 from grp=default
svc=DRBD_Status, sta=0
In this case you're not getting an alert because the status bit of the trap
is set to 0, which is the OK status. It looks like the remote.alert in CVS
was never updated when Mon starting using that field. trap.alert was
rewritten... Since these two alerts server the same purpose I'm going to
remove remote.alert from CVS.
Any thoughts as to what's going on here? I'm trying to get this
working:
- An alert getting kicked off by the mainmonitor's system when it
receives a trap; and
- The mon.cgi program on mainmonitor showing an alert status once
its received that trap.
BTW, you might want to use the 'redistribute' config parameter for your
traps, that will cause all status updates to propagate to your main mon
server. That way you can see when the last test occurred at all times.
From the current Mon manpage (in CVS):
redistribute alert [arg...]
A service may have one redistribute option, which is a special form of an
an alert definition. This alert will be called on every service status
update, even sequential success status updates. This can be used to
integrate Mon with another monitoring system, or to link together multiple
Mon servers via an alert script that generates Mon traps.
