Problems with user_alert.conf

hello,

 

 

i have a problem with my user_alert.conf

 

 

alert BIGIP_POOL_MEMBER_SESSION_STATUS "Pool member 10.42.100.79:80 session status (.*?)." {

 

snmptrap OID=".1.3.6.1.4.1.3375.2.4.0.203";

 

email toaddress="mail adress"

 

fromaddress="F5_3_DMZ at Mailserver"

 

body="F5 Pool Member Alert for Pool de.Server.ch_80"

 

}

 

alert BIGIP_POOL_MEMBER_STATUS "Pool member 10.42.100.79:80 monitor status (.*?)." {

 

snmptrap OID=".1.3.6.1.4.1.3375.2.4.0.204";

 

email toaddress="mail adress"

 

fromaddress="F5_3_DMZ at Mailserver"

 

body="F5 Pool Member Alert for Pool de.Server.ch_80"

 

}

 

alert BIGIP_POOL_MEMBER_STATUS "Pool member 10.42.100.100:80 monitor status (.*?)." {

 

snmptrap OID=".1.3.6.1.4.1.3375.2.4.0.205";

 

email toaddress="mail adress"

 

fromaddress="F5_3_DMZ at Mailserver"

 

body="F5 Pool Member Alert for Pool de.Server.ch_80"

 

}

 

 

 

and so on...

 

for every pool / poolmember configured. A lot of..

 

 

If i try to type :

 

logger -p local0.warning "Pool member 10.41.100.49:80 monitor status down."

 

 

i get an mail and our monitoring server an snmp trap.

 

 

But if a pool member really goes down oder disabled - i didnt get any message / trap oder mail.

 

 

What could it be ???
  • The label to the alert stanza must be globally unique across the entire alert configuration. Add a unique number to the BIGIP_POOL_MEMBER_STATUS label and it should work.
