Disabling email notifications for replication jobs

[AdrianM2]

Hi.

I was looking in web gui and config files but I can not find any way for disabling "Replication job failed" e-mail alerts.

Some of my replication jobs are falling but on next schedule they are getting done so I don''t want to receive emails about it every time it happens.

Any suggestions on where it can be changed?

Hi,

you can edit the service file of pvesr and remove the email option.

Hi,

you can edit the service file of pvesr and remove the email option.

You mean this file:

/lib/systemd/system/pvesr.service

right?

it contains:

[Unit]
Description=Proxmox VE replication runner
ConditionPathExists=/usr/bin/pvesr

[Service]
Type=oneshot
ExecStart=/usr/bin/pvesr run --mail 1

it should be:

ExecStart=/usr/bin/pvesr run --mail 0

?

 

[wolfgang]

Yes but I would copy this file and edit it under
/etc/systemd/system/pvesr.service

Because this way an update will not remove your setting

Ok, thanks a lot for your help.

EDIT:

Unfortunately mail alert for replication jobs are still turned on.
I tried both:

ExecStart=/usr/bin/pvesr run --mail 0

and

ExecStart=/usr/bin/pvesr run

Any ideas on how this line should look like?

What you get when you call this?

systemctl cat pvesr.service
systemctl cat pvesr.timer

Try to reload the service and timer

How to disable it in new version? PVE 7.1

I realise this is an old thread, however this is the first Google result for this type of search so I think it is sensible to continue the thread for future foragers.

Is there a way to have it notify on three consecutive failures, instead of every failure? I think that would filter out transient errors and have only real ones notified.
