Re: [monit] problem sending alerting message from monit

[help]

THank you for replying.

I have tried to set event queue. 
But I find that the directory /var/monit/does not exist in the system.

Is it fine if I just create that directory myself before in set the event queue in the monit control file?

Thank you very much

You can check Monit logs ... if mailserver which is used for message delivery failed, you will find error in log.

You can also set event queue which can save event for delivery retry => will solve temporary errors.

You can also set check which will watch availability of the mailserver which you use for Monit.

Excuse me, I have tried to use monit to send alerting email

The email that I send to is a "email to SMS" gateway that will convert the email into SMS and then send to phone.

However, I find out that sometimes I cannot receive SMS when resource limit is reached..

THe following is the setting I used


set alert address@hidden on {resource, action} with mail-format {
   from: address@hidden
   subject:
   #$SERVICE $EVENT at $DATE
   message: user:xxxx
            password:xxxx
            api_id:xxxx
            to:xxxx
            text: Monit $ACTION $SERVICE at $DATE on $HOST: $DESCRIPTION.
}


May I ask if problem sometimes exist when I use "email to SMS" gateway? 
Is it the problem probably related to the clickatell that I use? or is it related to monit?

Please ask me if you need more information

Thanks
