Hi Martin, Like the OP I am getting an email as well as the script action (which I now understand is as designed).
Is it possible to set up email as a backup/monit error alert? Usage: I want to suppress emails in lieu of scripts, but if monit fails in executing (script path is not available etc) then an email should be sent with this error. Or would this require a separate "file" check? Thank you, Shak ________________________________ From: monit-general <monit-general-bounces+sshaikh=hotmail....@nongnu.org> on behalf of mart...@tildeslash.com <mart...@tildeslash.com> Sent: 18 October 2017 08:25 To: This is the general mailing list for monit Subject: Re: monit alert -- Status failed network_resolv Hello Viktor, the 'alert' action is implicit, the alert is send too even if you have 'exec' action => you can simplify the configuration: original: if status != 0 then alert if status != 0 then exec "/usr/local/sbin/monit-slack.sh 'https://hooks.slack.com/services...'" simplified (exec sends alert as well): if status != 0 then exec "/usr/local/sbin/monit-slack.sh 'https://hooks.slack.com/services...'" If you need to suppress the alert completely, you can do it in the service context this way: check program network_resolv with path "/usr/local/sbin/server-integrity.sh -c RES -r '3'" every 33 cycles if status != 0 then exec "/usr/local/sbin/monit-slack.sh 'https://hooks.slack.com/services...'" noalert myuser@mydomain (we will clean the alert handling in the future - multiple coma separated actions will be possible and custom alert channels will be supported) Best regards, Martin > On 17 Oct 2017, at 23:13, SZÉPE Viktor <vik...@szepe.net> wrote: > > Hello! > > I may seem a rookie but why am I getting an email on the execution of a Slack > script? > > check program network_resolv > with path "/usr/local/sbin/server-integrity.sh -c RES -r '3'" every 33 > cycles > group integrity > if status != 0 then alert > if status != 0 then exec "/usr/local/sbin/monit-slack.sh > 'https://hooks.slack.com/services...'" > > All sources are available on GitHub: > https://github.com/szepeviktor/debian-server-tools/tree/master/monitoring/monit > > I've received a separate email with "Action: alert" > Please advise. > Thank you. > > ----- Forwarded message from r...@example.com ----- > Date: Tue, 17 Oct 2017 21:04:31 GMT > From: r...@example.com > Subject: monit alert -- Status failed network_resolv > To: ad...@szepe.net > > Status failed Service network_resolv > > Date: Tue, 17 Oct 2017 21:04:31 > Action: exec > Host: www.example.com<http://www.example.com> > Description: status failed (1) -- R:2001:4860:4860::8888 2 > > Your faithful employee, > Monit > > ----- End forwarded message ----- > > > SZÉPE Viktor, honlap üzemeltetés > https://github.com/szepeviktor/debian-server-tools/blob/master/CV.md > -- > +36-20-4242498 s...@szepe.net skype: szepe.viktor > Budapest, III. kerület > > > > > > -- > To unsubscribe: > https://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/monit-general -- To unsubscribe: https://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/monit-general
