OMERO LogMonitor

Install OmeroFenton for error notifications in Jabber

Requirements

The user account that the bot is run as (default omero) must already exist, it will not be created automatically in case the account requires special configuration. The default configuration assumes OMERO.server has been installed into its default location using the omero-server role.

Role Variables

Required variables:

• omero_logmonitor_slack_name: Slack bot name
• omero_logmonitor_slack_token: Slack secret token
• omero_logmonitor_slack_channel: Slack #channel for notifications

Recommended variables:

• omero_logmonitor_server_name: String used to identify alerts from this server

Optional variables:

• omero_logmonitor_email_oom: Whether to enable email notifications of out-of-memory errors, if True the omero_logmonitor_email_* properties must be defined, default False.
• omero_logmonitor_email_smtp: SMTP server
• omero_logmonitor_email_from: From address for email alerts
• omero_logmonitor_email_to: To address for email alerts@example.org
• omero_logmonitor_logs_dir_server: Base directory of the OMERO.server logs, set to "" to disable monitoring
• omero_logmonitor_logs_dir_web: Base directory of the OMERO.web logs, set to "" to disable monitoring
