SMTP / email notifications configuration question #496

Closed edward2a closed 3 months ago

edward2a commented 1 year ago

Hi SAS team!

By any chance, do you have any documentation or indications on how to configure email alerting / SMTP with this viya4-monitoring setup?

Or shall I assume this is to be done separately?

Thank you, Ed

Two of the components deployed as part of this project can handle alerting (including sending notifications via e-mails or other channels): Prometheus Alertmanager and Grafana. However, our deployment scripts do not currently automate the notification integration/configuration. But one of our colleagues has written blog posts (available in the SAS Communities Library Forums) that discuss alerting including how to configure Alertmanager and Grafana. The most recent one, Comparing Alerting Capabilities of Alertmanager with Grafana, is probably a good starting point. It also includes links to the other posts that cover the configuration details (see the box labeled Related Topics on the right side of page).

You can also refer to the Prometheus Alertmanager documentation and/or the Grafana documentation for more complete details about configuring these applications.
