Hi
I thought I would share this little script that I wrote.
If you are like me you probably would like to get rid of all warning emails and send them to your Slack channel instead. We use Slack, which is great, and we have configured incoming webhooks in order to be able to receive chat messages from different systems in our environment.
If you run your NetVault server on Linux this is quite easy.
Just place the script below in /usr/netvault/scripts/global/slack.sh and go to:
Configure Notifications -> Editing Global Notification Profile -> Job -> Job Failed
and click the checkbox that says: [Slack method]
Like so:
When a warning comes it looks like this in Slack:
*snip*
#!/bin/bash
# NVNAMESTARTSlack method NVNAMEEND
# NVCOMMENTSTARTSend Slack message when job fails.
# No extra variables are needed for this notification method.NVCOMMENTEND

function post_to_slack () {
