How configure email alerts when a node or pool member is down? in version 11.04

Hi Guys,

 

I need configure email alerts when a node or pool member is down? in version 11.04

 

I did the following steps:

 

Refence:SOL13180

 

First I did changes in this file: mailhub=192.168.215.3 FromLineOverride=YES

 

When I test send a email , I did received the email correctly:

 

echo "ssmtp test mail" | mail -vs "Test email for SOL13180" tasmat@xxx.com

 

After that , I configured the file : alert.conf

 

Reference:SOL3667

 

I did try this but doesn't work :

 

alert BIGIP_MCPD_MCPDERR_NODE_ADDRESS_MON_STATUS { snmptrap OID=".1.3.6.1.4.1.3375.2.4.0.12" email to address="tasmat@xxx.com" fromaddress="root" body="Warning the node xxx is down"

 

}

 

Regards

 

management

    Try this:

    alert BIGIP_MCPD_MCPDERR_NODE_ADDRESS_MON_STATUS { 
    snmptrap OID=".1.3.6.1.4.1.3375.2.4.0.12"; 
    email toaddress="tasmat@xxx.com" 
    fromaddress="root" 
    body="Warning the node xxx is down"

}

    Just to be clear, the difference is that I have added a semicolon (;) after the snmptrap OID and also taken out the space between "to" and "address" ie from 'to address' to 'toaddress'.

    Is this done for only one certain pool or is this for all pools on the LTM?
