Re: monit alert -- Status failed network_resolv

[address@hidden]

Hello Viktor,

the 'alert' action is implicit, the alert is send too even if you have 'exec' 
action => you can simplify the configuration:

original:
  if status != 0 then alert
  if status != 0 then exec "/usr/local/sbin/monit-slack.sh 
'https://hooks.slack.com/services...'"

simplified (exec sends alert as well):
  if status != 0 then exec "/usr/local/sbin/monit-slack.sh 
'https://hooks.slack.com/services...'"

If you need to suppress the alert completely, you can do it in the service 
context this way:

        check program network_resolv with path 
"/usr/local/sbin/server-integrity.sh -c RES -r '3'" every 33 cycles
                if status != 0 then exec "/usr/local/sbin/monit-slack.sh 
'https://hooks.slack.com/services...'"
                noalert address@hidden


(we will clean the alert handling in the future - multiple coma separated 
actions will be possible and custom alert channels will be supported)


Best regards,
Martin
