Any idea where to get the info on what each alert string means and does within the alert.conf file?

Jan 29, 2016they are coming in every minute or so..yes it started after I dropped the posted config lines. Just emails we are not sending snmp at this point. says ltm is not a directory. but the pool is up and so are the nodes and i can still see the emails flooding inbound up/down

Jan 29, 2016ltm is a file not a directory.
Do this command to see messages as they are written to the ltm log file:
[root@inst:Active:Standalone] config tail -f /var/log/ltm

If there are no messages logged here when you see email alerts then that is odd. Does each alert message have a different timestamp? It might be time to open a case with F5 support.
