Currently I get the emails for the wikidata contact group (as do some other wmde devs) via the wikidata-monitoring contact which is a mailing list held by WMDE.
As I understand it from the comments in icinga config files:
> "By default, users can only issue commands for hosts or services"
As we currently use a mailing list, none of our individual users are actually in the contact group, thus we can do nothing with our services (such as wikidata dispatching) on icinga.
If being added as a direct contact for the wikidata group would allow such acks etc of problems with services attached to the wikidata group then please could I be added to the group?
I don't know who else is currently listed on the group individually, but it may make sense for some other wmde devs/deployers to also be added for access.
Other users currently might include:
- @aude
- @hoo
- @Ladsgroup
I could also be misunderstanding icinga, and being added to the group may not actually allow any access, in which case this ticket could just be closed.
