Alerts

From Mon Wiki

Jump to: navigation, search

The following are some alert methods which mon can use:

  • Email notification via SMTP
  • Alphanumeric paging notification via modem, using QuickPage, or via email
  • Alphanumeric messaging to portable devices using SNPP.
  • Traps can be delivered to remote mon servers for distributed hierarchical management
  • Send events from mon to HP Openview management stations
  • Windows pop-up messages
  • Open a ticket in a GNATS or Bugzilla problem-tracking system
  • Instant messaging via AIM or IRC

It is trivial to add your own alert, and it does not require changing any code in the server. An alert can be a simple shell script or any other program executable by the mon server.
