Email Certain Fields in Alert

Post by aer9480 »

Hey guys, so I am having another issue that I cant find any answers to online.

When I configure Nagios to send an email to me on any new events, and I have it read out the last log with %lastalertlog%, it just prints out a jumbled mess of all my parsed fields. Is there any way to pick and choose which fields get put in the email? Or is it an all-or-nothing kind of thing?

Thanks for your help!

Right now it's all or nothing unfortunately. We want to enhance this in a future version. I wish I had a better answer than that, but it's a highly requested feature that I hope comes in the next major version.

You're welcome. Trust me, I am pushing for this feature, I actually use NLS for my own needs :)
