Customize emails for monitoring alert

In the config folder, if there is no mail folder, create a mail folder and set the owner as the tomcat user

/opt/abiquo/config/mail

• Email file

  monitoringAlertTemplate.mustache

  <p>You are receiving this email because the alert <strong>{{name}}</strong> has been <strong>{{state}}</strong> at {{alertDate}}.</p>
  
  <h4>Alert description</h4>
  <p>{{description}}</p>
  
  <h4>Notified alarms</h4>
  <ul>
  {{#alarms}}
  <li><em>{{alarmName}}</em>: {{alarmDescription}} - <em>{{entityType}}<em>: {{entityName}}</li>
  {{/alarms}}
  </ul>
  
  <p>For further details, go to the {{{portalname}}} at: {{{portaladdress}}}</p>

• Properties file

  monitoringAlert_en_US.properties

  subject=Alert {0} has been {1} at {2}
  portalname=Abiquo console
  portaladdress={0}

  If you change the subject property, you must restart the Tomcat server to apply your changes

• The variable "{1}" represents the state of the alert as "activated" or "deactivated" 

• The variable "{2}" represents the timestamp of when the alert changed state

• In the properties file you can only set the subject, portalname and portaladdress.

Optionally add custom variables and content

• In the email body, to add a custom variable, use double curly braces (also called double mustaches). For example

  <p>Please call your system Administrator on <strong>{{helpline}}</strong></p>

• Then in your properties file, set value for your custom variable

  helpline=555 12345

  To return unescaped HTML as part of a template property, use the triple mustache, which is "{{{" and "}}}". The Mustache templating software that adds the property values will escape HTML variables in double mustaches by default.

• For example, for "Spanish - Spain" change the en_US to es_ES
• The user language is the UI language when you create the user

Change the owner of the files to the tomcat user
