NAME

hobbit-ackinfo.cgi - Xymon CGI script to acknowledge alerts

SYNOPSIS

hobbit-ackinfo.cgi

DESCRIPTION

hobbit-ackinfo.cgi is invoked as a CGI script via the hobbit-ackinfo.sh CGI wrapper.

hobbit-ackinfo.cgi is used to acknowledge an alert on the Xymon "Critical Systems" view, generated by the hobbit-nkview.cgi(1) utility. This allows the staff viewing the Critical Systems view to acknowledge alerts with a "Level 1" alert, thereby removing the alert from the Critical Systems view.

Note that the Level 1 alert generated by the hobbit-ackinfo.cgi utility does NOT stop alerts from being sent.

In a future version of Xymon (after Xymon 4.2), this utility will also be used for acknowledging alerts at other levels.

OPTIONS

--level=NUMBER
Sets the acknowledgment level. This is typically used to force a specific level of the acknowledgment, e.g. a level 1 acknowledge when called from the Critical Systems view.
--validity=TIME
Sets the validity of the acknowledgment. By default this is taken from the CGI parameters supplied by the user.
--sender=STRING
Logs STRING as the sender of the acknowledgment. By default, this is taken from the loginname of the webuser sending the acknowledgment.
--env=FILENAME
Loads the environment defined in FILENAME before executing the CGI script.
--area=NAME
Load environment variables for a specific area. NB: if used, this option must appear before any --env=FILENAME option.
--debug
Enables debugging output.

ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES

BBHOME
Used to locate the template files for the generated web pages.
QUERY_STRING
Contains the parameters for the CGI script.
