I realize this forum was intended only for iRule discussion, but since there is no general LTM forum and the subject came up in this thread, I'll ask here...
I had been putting off the investigation of SMTP alerts until finishing some iRule testing, but reading this thread inspired me to focus on SMTP for a while. I followed the instructions in all three of those docs, verified that outbound email works just fine, but neither the custom alert I created now the default alert I modified to include an SMTP alert is generating email. To test whether my custom alert was at least matching for SNMP, I pointed it to a test SNMP server here and found that no traps were being sent either.
Is there anything that must be done in order to activate the alerts configured in /config/user_alert.conf (or, perhaps more importantly, the dynamic file /var/tmpfs/run/alert.conf)?
