Alert emails from pollers
Hi
A new discovery from our partitioned pollers today: Alert emails are sent out from the poller, not the main Observium instance. We can work around it, but since we have pollers in some pretty firewalled networks, it's going to be an effort. We always thought of pollers as just data collection agents.
Can this behavior be changed in the configuration somewhere, or is it just the way it works?

It could be changed by turning off the alerter being run by the poller wrapper and running the alerter script on the central host. It'll introduce some latency in sending of alerts, though.
"alerter.php -h all" periodically in cron
$config['poller-wrapper']['alerter'] = FALSE;
Or "run alerter in poller wrapper" in /settings/section=polling/.

Hrm,
probably I can add option for always send alerts from main poller.

That would be cool. Do let us know if that happens.
