Hello, We have largely successfully set up events and alerting based upon specific patterns, etc. However, we have hit upon a snag. I can put an event in the 0 level and the event works just fine, like this;
*** Alerts *** #to = [EMAIL PROTECTED] from = [EMAIL PROTECTED] to = |/var/opt/OV/local/OV/bin/testsmokeevent +dnsfailure type = rtt pattern = >1000,>1000 comment = DNS taking 1 second or more to resolve, likely outage +testalert type = rtt pattern = >2 comment = This is a test value to test a alert...not for production #to = |/var/opt/OV/local/OV/bin/testsmokeevent *** Targets *** #some other config stuff left off +googledns menu = DNS query google.com title = Google DNS Query to dnsserver host = dnsserver probe = DNS alerts = dnsfailure,testalert but when I comment out the event at the 0 level and add it at the level 1 like this; *** Alerts *** to = [EMAIL PROTECTED] from = [EMAIL PROTECTED] #to = |/var/opt/OV/local/OV/bin/testsmokeevent +dnsfailure type = rtt pattern = >1000,>1000 comment = DNS taking 1 second or more to resolve, likely outage +testalert type = rtt pattern = >2 comment = This is a test value to test a alert...not for production to = |/var/opt/OV/local/OV/bin/testsmokeevent *** Targets *** #some other config stuff left off +googledns menu = DNS query google.com title = Google DNS Query to dnsserver host = dnsserver probe = DNS alerts = dnsfailure,testalert I get an error; ERROR: /usr/local/etc/smokeping_config, line 84: unknown variable 'to'. (Line 84 is in red above, and I highlighted the config lines that I change between running error free and erroring out in pink, except line 84 of my config file.) Any idea what I am doing wrong here? I am certain I read in the documentation that "to" was an optional variable in level 1 of alerts. I have probably messed up something else, but any suggestions would be appreciated. By the way...so far I like Smokeping a lot. Thanks!
