PushOver

Send notification to Pushover using Netdata's Agent alert notification feature, which supports dozens of endpoints, user roles, and more.

• Netdata will send warning messages with priority 0 and critical messages with priority 1.
• Pushover allows you to select do-not-disturb hours. The way this is configured, critical notifications will ring and vibrate your phone, even during the do-not-disturb-hours.
• All other notifications will be delivered silently.

Setup

Prerequisites

• An Application token. You can use the same on all your Netdata servers.
• A User token for each user you are going to send notifications to. This is the actual recipient of the notification.
• Access to the terminal where Netdata Agent is running

Configuration

You can edit the configuration file using the edit-config script from the Netdata config directory.

cd /etc/netdata 2>/dev/null || cd /opt/netdata/etc/netdata
sudo ./edit-config health_alarm_notify.conf

Troubleshooting

Test Notification

You can run the following command by hand, to test alerts configuration:

# become user netdata
sudo su -s /bin/bash netdata

# enable debugging info on the console
export NETDATA_ALARM_NOTIFY_DEBUG=1

# send test alarms to sysadmin
/usr/libexec/netdata/plugins.d/alarm-notify.sh test

# send test alarms to any role
/usr/libexec/netdata/plugins.d/alarm-notify.sh test "ROLE"

Note that this will test all alert mechanisms for the selected role.
