Filtering Notifications
157
Note
You can halt or redirect almost all probe notifications by replying to a notification emails
with a variation of the command
ack suspend host
. However, you cannot halt
Satellite probe notifications by responding to a probe with
ack suspend host
or
other redirect responses. These probes require you to change the notifications within
the web interface of the Satellite.
7.4.4. Filtering Notifications
Since notifications can be generated whenever a probe changes state, simple changes in your
network can result in a flood of notifications. The creation, cancellation, and application of Notification
filters is discussed in detail in
Section 6.10.2.1, “Notification � Filters”
.
7.4.5. Deleting Notification Methods
Theoretically, removing notification methods should be as easy as creating them. After all, you must
populate no fields to conduct the deletion and a button exists for this explicit purpose. However,
existing relationships between methods and probes can complicate this process. Follow these steps to
remove a notification method:
1. Log into the RHN website as an Satellite Administrator or Monitoring Administrator.
2. Navigate to the
Monitoring � Notifications
page and click the name of the method to be removed.
3. On the
User Details � Notification Methods
tab, click
delete method
. If the method is not
associated with any probes, you are presented with a confirmation page. Click
Confirm Deletion
.
The notification method is removed.
Tip
Since both the notification method name and address can be edited, consider
updating the method rather than deleting it. This redirects notifications from all
probes using the method without having to edit each probe and create a new
notification method.
4. If the method is associated with one or more probes, you are presented with a list of the probes
using the method and the systems to which the probes are attached instead of a confirmation page.
Click the probe name to go directly to the
System Details � Probes
tab.
5. On the
System Details � Probes
tab, select another notification method and click
Update Probe
.
6. You may now return to the
Monitoring � Notifications
page and delete the notification method.
7.5. Probes
Now that the Red Hat Network Monitoring Daemon has been installed and notification methods have
been created, you may begin installing probes on your Monitoring-entitled systems. If a system is
entitled to Monitoring, a
Probes
tab appears within its
System Details
page. This is where you will
conduct most probe-related work.
