fan failed notification via envd.conf

[YLTan]

I have these set in /etc/envd.conf and restarted the envd daemon using kill -HUP but when i test it by pulling out one of the FAN it didn't send email to me. The server are cfg to be able to send email and test ok for that function. Does anyone know why it doesn't send email when one of the fan is pulled out. The GSP console shows one of the fan fail.

Did you also tried to stop and start the envd?
/sbin/init.d/envd stop
/sbin/init.d/envd start

in the envd.conf file it said

# envd reads its configuration information when the envd daemon
# starts, and when it receives a SIGHUP signal to restart itself.

I also saw this in the file, but if it's not working i always try a real restart when it can not do any harm.

Do you need to do a su - root in this file. The envd is running as root?

i tried stop/start envd from /sbin but still doesn't work.

To exclude all misstakes, you haved tried to run the string in the conf-file manual?

When the manual run sends the mail, then that part is OK.
You can also try to simply replace your string in the conf-file with an "echo fan-failed" >/dev/console to see if the envd is picking this up.
