Actually the original behaviour was bug - the name used in the “check system” was always intended to be visible in M/Monit, snip from Monit 5.9 manual (see the last sentence in the snip): —8<— =item 7. CHECK SYSTEM <unique name> The system name is usually hostname, but any descriptive name can be used. You can use the variable $HOST as the name, which will expand to the hostname. This test allows one to check general system resources such as CPU usage (percent of time spent in user, system and wait), total memory usage or load average. The unique name is used as the system hostname in mail alerts and when M/Monit is configured, then also as initial name of the host entry in M/Monit. —8<— Monit 5.13 fixes the problem - the “localhost” name is configuration issue … “$HOST” should be used if the real hostname is needed instead of custom name. I’m sorry about the bug thread … i wanted to post the data to it and used “reply-all” to the original message, which automatically includes “[email protected]” - i guess the “-quiet” postfix makes the message invisible in the thread, changing it to “[email protected]” instead.
