David_Wilson Posted February 14, 2018 Share Posted February 14, 2018 Hi, We've set up a routing rule to automatically log alerts from our Nagios instance for issues such as disk space. When Nagios sends an email with the expression in the subject line the rule does not log a call. However if we forward the email from an analyst the rule triggers and a call is raised. I did suspect this was because Service Manager didn't recognize the sending email address so I created a basic user matching the address Nagios sends from but this didn't resolve the issue. Anyone had a similar issue? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Victor Posted February 14, 2018 Share Posted February 14, 2018 @David_Wilson had a quick look at event logs after 9 am and I can see two attempts to log a request from Nagios, at 09.34 and 10.42. Both failed because Hornbill was unable to locate an existing user or contact with that email address... when was the Nagios user added? If it was created before any of these attempts, was the email with "Disk Usage WARNING" in the subject? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David_Wilson Posted February 14, 2018 Author Share Posted February 14, 2018 Hi Victor, I created the account at 11:00 and we then generated an email at 11:30 which failed to log. The user name we created is Nagios XI, I can forward you a copy of the email if that would help? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Munns Posted February 14, 2018 Share Posted February 14, 2018 Are there subscribers on the service? If so is the Nagios user one of them? I had a similar issue a while ago and that was the cause.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Victor Posted February 14, 2018 Share Posted February 14, 2018 @David_Wilson hmm... I don't see any raise new request attempt at 11.30... I suspect the reason would be the one I mentioned in our email... EDIT: reason being the test email has a different subject hence is not picked up by the routing rule...
