Re: XI not sending alert emails

XI did show that the email was sent, and I could manually send emails from the XI server to my email (command line). This is fixed now however. The snmp demon had some issues and after resolving that, mail sent.

XI not sending alert emails

Hello everyone,

As of Friday my XI server (2024R2, Red Hat 8.10) started to stop sending alert emails. I can send emails from the server using SMTP with no issues as the nagios user so I don't think it that. And using the GUI I can send test emails.

Anyone ever see this? Any help is appreciated!

Re: VMWare storage monitoring

Using the Config Wizard for vsphere, I get to the 2nd step Monitor Metrics, and I choose the Datastores tab.

All I see there is Datastores Selection
Specify which datastores you'd like to monitor on the VMware host (server).

Datastores
CRITICAL: Could not connect to the specified vCenter server.

Re: VMWare storage monitoring

Thanks kg2857.

I don't need to monitor Avamar, I need to monitor the LUNs for VWmware. The Avamar backups are fine, rarely do they fill the LUN but when it does, the system crashes.

I need to get warnings when any LUN is at 80% and 90%.
