I was at the Chicago SWUG yesterday and the last thing they presented on was about alerting.
It was said that you can customize the emails that go out so they look a lot nicer (give it a little salt) instead of the way they are.
Does anybody have an example of code and what it looks like? I would like to start making the emails look professional for the teams that get them.
Thank you.
I was able to do a little HTML for this and it worked out pretty well
<html>
<head>
<style type="text/css">
</style>
</head>
<body><!-- --!> Red Border #FF7D7D Red light shade FFE0E0 Green Border #7DFF7F Green Light Shade #E7FFE0 Warning Boarder #FFEC7D Warrning light:FFDA0A </!-- -->
<table class='alert' style="border: 3px solid #FF7D7D; width: 400px; border-collapse: collapse; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 10pt;">
<tr><th colspan="2" style="border-bottom: 3px solid #FF7D7D;padding: 5px;background-color: #FFE0E0">Network Alert</th></tr>
<tr><td>Alert: </td><td>The Following Node Has Gone down</td></tr>
<tr class='alt'><td style="background-color: #FFE0E0 ;width: 50%;text-align: justify;padding: 3px" >Node Name</td><td style="background-color: #FFE0E0 ;width: 50%;text-align: justify;padding: 3px">${NodeName}</td></tr>
<tr><td>Location</td><td>${location}</td></tr>
<tr class='alt'><td style="background-color: #FFE0E0; width: 50%;text-align: justify;padding: 3px">System Name</td><td style="background-color: #FFE0E0 ;width: 50%;text-align: justify;padding: 3px">${DNS}</td></tr>
<tr><td>IP Address</td><td>${IP_Address}</td></tr>
<tr class='alt'><td style=" background-color: #FFE0E0; width: 50%;text-align: justify;padding: 3px">Node URL</td><td style="background-color: #FFE0E0 ;width: 50%;text-align: justify;padding: 3px"><A href=${NodeDetailsURL}>Click Here</A></td></tr>
<tr><td>Time of Alert</td><td>${Time} ${Date} ${Day}</td></tr>
</table>
</body> </html>
What it looks like:
I am still playing around with it to get it to exactly what I want.
