Objet: [Nagios-users] Nagios Core and SMS alerts (or lack of) through Nagios
Hi all,
Im at my wits end.
Spent 2 days now trying to get Nagios to SMS me through gnokii but a lunar eclipse is a more frequent event!
So i have Ubuntu 11.04 installed using postfix to email me alerts (works flawlessly)
Now i also want a text message as a failover incase my Exchange server or internet line goes down.
I have installed and configured gnokii to what i think is at a functioning level.
I have a Nokia 6301 mobile hooked up to Ubuntu via USB cable.
I can send a text message out through the phone via the CLI no issue at all with both my admin user logged in and also when i log in as the nagios user so i know i have the correct permissions on the ttyACM0 port that is assigned to the 6301.
Will Nagios send an SMS - will it f*£$!!
Here is my command.cfg relevant part
# 'notify-host-by-sms' command definition
define command{
command_name notify-host-by-sms
command_line /usr/bin/printf "%.120s" "***** Nagios ***** $NOTIFICATIONTYPE$: Host $HOSTALIAS$ is $HOSTSTATE$ | /usr/bin/gnokii --sendsms $CONTACTPAGER$
}
# 'notify-service-by-sms' command definition
define command{
command_name notify-service-by-sms
command_line /usr/bin/printf "%.120" "***** Nagios ***** $HOSTALIAS$/$SERVICEDESC$ is $SERVICESTATE$ | /usr/bin/gnokii --sendsms $CONTACTPAGER$
}
Here is my contact.cfg
define contact{
contact_name MYNAME
use generic-contact
alias MYNAME
host_notification_options d,u,r,f
service_notification_options w,u,c,r,f
email MYEMAIL
pager +44XXXXXXXXX
host_notification_period 24x7
service_notification_period 24x7
host_notification_commands notify-host-by-email,notify-host-by-sms
service_notification_commands notify-service-by-email,notify-service-by-sms
Here is my templates.cfg
define contact{
name generic-contact
service_notification_period 24x7
host_notification_period 24x7
service_notification_options w,u,c,r,f,s
host_notification_options d,u,r,f,s
service_notification_commands notify-service-by-email, notify-service-by-sms
host_notification_commands notify-host-by-email, notify-host-by-sms
register 0
}
what can be going on – why will nagios not SMS me? Its got to be a nagios config issue and not gnokii error as I can send text through CLI fine,
Please help me, im going insane
Thanks
Kind Regards
Andrew
