CirrusI am getting 2 to 3 emails alerts on 1 pool member down.
I have configured custom alerts on pool member down. I have configured them for each pool separately.
The problem is that I get 2 sometime 3 emails for 1 pool member down. This is because mails are g...

Noctilucentyou need to select only one tmm process, because every process is generating an alert. And you only have to select one system for alerting not both.
i think pool member up/down is reported by mcpd. so, shouldn't it be only one log?
e.g.
[root@ve11a:Active:In Sync] config tail -f /var/log/ltm
Dec 12 01:30:13 ve11a notice mcpd[7229]: 01070727:5: Pool /Common/foo member /Common/200.200.200.101:80 monitor status up. [ /Common/http: up ] [ was unchecked for 0hr:0min:35sec ]

Actualy when one member goes down i get 2 logs one from each LTM system and when they come up i get 1 mail from each device again that pool member is down although it just came up.
i think 1 email from each device is correct, isn't it? email is sent based on log. if you do see log, you should have received email.
Muhammad_Irfan1Yes nitass 1 mail from each device is right and acceptable but i get 2 emails from each device for 1 pool member down. I was watching closely i shut one member and recieved 2 emails one from each LTM then after 5 minutes when i up the member i recieved 2 emails one from each LTM and when i looked into logs with pool member up i also recieved pool member down log as well. I don't understand why F5 logs member down after so much time for the 2nd time when member came back up.
TortiI'm sry. its not the tmm process. A message / LTM is a normal behavior. If the message arrives much later than the log entry on the system, you should check your mail server log. Then you can see, if the message was send later to the mail server or if you mail server is the reason for the delay. if the log entry on the f5 is also with delay, then the reason should be your monitor for the pool- Muhammad_Irfan1First log for pool member down is received straightaway in local logs. But sometimes I get one log straightaway and i get another log member down after 5 to 10 minutes later. Now during checking this time i received one email but last time i received two mails caz i got 2 logs. Lets hope i don't get 2 logs more often. I receive email from root[host name of my LTM] although i have configured fromaddress as f5admin@mobilink.net but from address is always root[host name of my LTM]
