Hello:
I'm upgrading mon from an old version of mon to .99.2 on tru64. We are
using perl 5.6.0.
Everything is fine, except that for some reason I _cannot_ get mon to read
alerts in alert.d directory. Then it begins to even refuse to see the
mail.alerts which are untouched.
Did something in the mon.cf file format change?
I use two alerts-- the mail.alert for problems and a custom 'service
availability' alert (nesavail.alert) that is called every 10min, plus an
upalert which also calls the nesavail.alert.
I've gone thru a complete fresh install of mon twice, and torn apart the
main mon script (playing with paths) to try and get mon to read the alerts
which are plainly there.
Here is the syslog output of mon starting:
...
Sep 24 08:34:17 koi mon[252109]: mail.alert not found in one of
(@alerttdirs[/usr/local/lib/mon/alert.d])
Sep 24 08:34:17 koi mon[252109]: nesavail.alert not found in one of
(@alerttdirs[/usr/local/lib/mon/alert.d])
Sep 24 08:34:17 koi mon[252109]: nesavail.alert not found in one of
(@alerttdirs[/usr/local/lib/mon/alert.d])
Sep 24 08:34:17 koi mon[252109]: mail.alert not found in one of
(@alerttdirs[/usr/local/lib/mon/alert.d])
Sep 24 08:34:17 koi mon[252109]: mon server started
here is how I'm starting mon to test:
mon@koi:~>$ MONHOME=/usr/local/lib/mon
mon@koi:~>$ export MONHOME
mon@koi:~>$ ./mon -c etc/mon.cf -A $MONHOME/etc/auth.cf -b `pwd`
and finally, here is a sample of a watch in my mon.cf:
watch listserv
service smtp
interval 10m
monitor smtp3.monitor -t 30
period wd {Mon-Sun}
alertevery 4h
alertafter 2 30m
alert mail.alert mon-listserv@isc
period wd {Mon-Sun}
alertevery 10m
alert nesavail.alert
upalert nesavail.alert
Why is mon refusing to acknowledge these alerts which is plainly there in
the alert.d directory?
