I am going to take a family sick day today. Vinnie has a fever and got sick twice throughout the night. Joe and I are tag teaming today, so when I get back from Chemo training with Cindy, Joe is leaving for work. I'd work from home, but I am completely exhausted from bring up with Vinnie most of the night. Btw- Cindy's chemo starts Monday and I will be taking a vacation day Monday. T Sent from my iPhone

[CELS Sysadmins] RT Perl hacking
by Craig Stacey 28 Jan '13

28 Jan '13

Okay fellow sysadmins. I've a puzzle I can't seem to solve, so I'll throw it up and see if anyone has any ideas. If you don't know or care about RT and/or Perl, you can just ignore this thread. Trying to solve the problem below. It's not an urgent priority, and I don't really agree with the reasoning behind it, but in any case we've been asked to modify a user queue on the CI RT server such that: > When a ticket comes in unclaimed, mail should go to all admins. > However, when the ticket is claimed then only the owner of the ticket gets any further mail. I found what claims to be a solution to this, but I can't get the script working. This is on the CI RT instance (ie, no hacks to mail functions). Here's the config and script: === Condition: On Owner Change Action: User Defined Template: Blank Stage: TransactionCreate Custom Condition: Custom action preparation code: foreach my $address($self->TicketObj->QueueObj->Cc->MemberEmailAddresses){ $self->TicketObj->SquelchMailTo($address); } if($self->TicketObj->OwnerObj->Id != $RT::Nobody->id){ $self->TicketObj->AddWatcher( Type=>"AdminCc", PrincipalId=>$self->TicketObj->OwnerObj->Id ); } $self->TicketObj->UnsquelchMailTo($self->TicketObj->OwnerObj->EmailAddress); Custom action cleanup code: === It seems to work, in that when I look at the ticket, I see the ticket owner explicitly listed as AdminCc, but it does not seem to squelch the mail to the other AdminCcs (the default watcher group), so all the admins still get traffic on the ticket. If anyone has any thoughts, throw them my way. _______________________________________________ This is the CELS Sysadmins mailing list.

All, I've just taken a tumble on the ice rink that is my driveway. I dodged this all day out running errands. Since I'm still not over my cold and am now nursing a sore hip and elbow, please put me down for a sick day tomorrow. I'll be around so please call my cell if things shatter. -- Hunter Matthews Unix Administrator Office: Bldg 221 Room B240 Argonne National Labs, MCS Key: F0F88438 / FFB5 34C0 B350 99A4 BB02 9779 A5DB 8B09 F0F8 8438 Never take candy from strangers.

Originally, I was scheduled for a vacation day tomorrow (1/28), but that was because I was going to be driving back from Minnesota. Since I was sick, we canceled that trip, and I'm feeling better, so I'll be at work as normal tomorrow. Cancel the vacation day. Also, a heads up that I'll be working from home in the afternoon on Friday. I'm updating the calendar to reflect this as we speak. -- Craig

Trying to get in since others are now out but took 20 minutes to get almost out of town and the radio tells me 55 is stopped most of my way. I think it would be best to work from home this morning and hopefully this clears up by mid day. Otherwise i won't be in for over another hour+. Jumping online shortly. --- John Roberts Sent from my iPhone
