Description

I used the Netdata one line installer provided by the Cloud dashboard, on Debian instance (Proxmox 8) I'm setting up alerting. The path /usr/libexec/netdata does not exist, so I'm not sure how to test alerting or indeed it will work.

I guess the documentation should all read /opt/netdata/usr/libexec/netdata/plugins.d? I also had to manually copy /etc/netdata/health_alarm_notify.conf to /opt/netdata/etc/netdata/health_alarm_notify.conf. Now I'm not sure if its the documentation is incorrect or the one liner install is incorrect.

Hey @timdonovanuk 👋

I also had to manually copy /etc/netdata/health_alarm_notify.conf to /opt/netdata/etc/netdata/health_alarm_notify.conf.

For this I would @netdata/agent-sre, and then take the feedback internally if there is indeed a fix needed on the integration.
