High 5 minute load average alert

[davshirley]

If the server has a high load level, I get a nice little email that contains a snapshot of the running processes, vmstat and a dump of the server-status page.

The problem here is that our server-status page is behind a http password protection so all I ever see in the report is:

Unable to retrieve Apache Server Status [http://127.0.0.1/server-status] - Unable to download: 401 - Authorization Required

Is there any way that I can provide the user/pass so that I can get a complete report?

You could try changing PT_APACHESTATUS in /etc/csf/csf.conf to something like:

Code: Select all

"http://username:password@127.0.0.1/whm-server-status"

But we've not tried it and it may not work. If it fails with URLGET set to 1, try setting URLGET to 2. There's little else that can be done.

I knew it had to be in there somewhere.

I'll set it to that, set PT_LOAD_LEVEL to something silly (1), restart lfd and wait a few....

There's the email. Works like a charm! Thanks!
