System Notification notifies you of Disk, CPU, and Memory usage of Logpoint. When there is a new notification, the navigation bar displays an alert. Click the Notification icon to open Notification Center.
Notification¶
These notifications are configured from Settings >> System Settings >> System Monitor >> Dashboard.
System Monitoring Dashboard¶
Two notifications are setup and activated in Logpoint out-of-the-box. You are notified when the total disk usage reaches 80% and 90%. The values can be configured to trigger the notification at any threshold. To create more disk usage notifications, go to Configure Custom Disk Usage Notification.
Default Disk Notifications¶
You also get a pop-up notification when your disk usage is greater than 80%. This pop-up is displayed even when there are no disk notifications configured.
Disk Alert¶
Note
If you configured disk notification before upgrading to Logpoint v6.8.0, Logpoint adds and generates the default two severity level notifications. Pre-existing notifications and notifications configured prior to Logpoint v6.8.0 do not include severity level.
The Disk, CPU, and Memory Notifications use a common SSH Certificate.
Go to Settings >> System Settings from the navigation bar and click System Monitor.
Select Dashboard.
In Disk Usage, Click Add.
Adding a Disk Notification¶
Enter the Percent of total disk space used that triggers a notification, or at what threshold you want to be notified.
Enter the Title and Message you want the notification to have.
If you want to initiate a command at the same time the notification is sent, specify a system Command. The command should be an executable bash command. Providing a Command is optional.
For Example: The following Bash command checks for free disk space at /dev/sda and also cleans up cached packages at that location:
df - Th/dev/sda
sudo apt-get clean
Enter the address of the remote Server and the Port number.
Select the Authentication type of the remote Server.
If you choose Password, enter a Password.
If you choose SSH Certificate, an SSH Certificate is automatically generated.
