Re: Email Template Macros - %time% is blank

It never worked to my knowledge. This is a fairly new installation. All other macros work fine.

I'll try a new template and try rebooting the server.

Re: Alerting setup and not receiving emails

Thanks for all the help. The response above provided invaluable tools to figure out why I was not getting alerts. It turned out that the query driving the alerts was changed and thus invalidated. Long story short, we are parsing data using the logstash CSV input filter. The data itself had a space a...

Re: Adding 'logstash-output-syslog' plugin failed

I'd like to close this topic, sorry for the inconvenience.

Hopefully, this helps someone else.

This process had to be killed. Now when I try to start logstash: [root@nagios01 ~]# servic...
