How do I change the hostname in e-mail notifications?

Question Copied


How do I change the host name for my OP5 Monitor server in status links within e-mail notifications? My users use another domain name to access the monitoring system.

By default, the monitoring servers host name will be used in links. If you want to override that setting, you need to create a configuration file for “notify” and set the “hostname” property.

Below are the commands to override that setting to be executed on the monitoring server

## echo "hostname: hostname.in.notifications" >> /etc/op5/notify.yml
## chown monitor:apache /etc/op5/notify.yml
## chmod 664 /etc/op5/notify.yml
