Alerts to NCPA

Post by weveland »

Guys/Gals,

I'm just wondering if I can pull a field from the query to satisfy the hostname for an NRPE Event.

For example Lets say I have 20 Servers that Run nginx or apache. I create an alert based on a query looking for 500 level events. The alert is sent to the proper hostname as identified in the query.
The goal of this is to not need to create a single alert/query for every single server.

Wayne,

Unfortunately, field values cannot be sent via alerting at this time. This has been a highly requested feature, and I'll bump the feature request and provide a link for our developers to this forum post. Thank you for bringing your thoughts to our attention!
