Munin email notification
Solution 1:
There are two things you need to set for Munin to send out alerts. If both items are not set, mails will not be sent. This is how I have Munin configured to send e-mail via localhost
on the machine Munin is running on. Please compare to what you have & adjust accordingly:
contact.myalert.command mail -s "MUNIN - ${var:group} :: ${var:host}" [email protected]
contact.myalert.always_send warning critical
And then under the host tree I have this setup. Note the contacts myalert
line:
# a simple host tree
[localhost.localdomain]
address 127.0.0.1
use_node_name yes
contacts myalert
Solution 2:
It seems like your config doesn't match the example from the munin.conf file. The example is:
contact.someuser.command mail -s "Munin notification" [email protected]
And you have:
contact.prashanth.command echo "Munin notification" | sendmail -t [email protected]
I would expect something like this to work:
contact.prashanth.command mail -s "Munin notification" [email protected]
