[surekhasplunk]

My requirement is if CPU load high is found and number of results is more than say 2 then i want to trigger an alert send email is working but along with the email i want to send an attachment a .txt file which i got steps to resolve that error. How to do this.
How can i send an external file as an attachment along with alert email.

You might need to do custom email actions for this. Instead of this , why don't you include the content of the txt file as a message content and send it with the alert ?
ie : in the message section . http://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/6.5.0/Alert/Alertexamples#Scheduled_alert_example
