Sound an alarm

[Richard Harman]

Serial interface?  Alarm clock?  Wow.  Leave it to the EEs to whip out a 
soldering iron. ;)  Not that there's anything wrong with that.

I'm in the process of replacing a WhatsUpGold box (that already makes 
noise and has a decent pair of speakers that can be heard throughout the 
entire OPS floor) with Nagios, and here's my solution to the same problem:

misccommands.cfg:
define command {
  command_name host-notify-by-sound
  command_line $USER2$/notify_by_sound $HOSTSTATE$
}

notify_by_sound:
#!/usr/bin/perl

use strict;
use warnings;

my ($status) = @ARGV;

if ($status eq "DOWN" || $status eq "UNREACHABLE")
{ system("/usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_nrpe -H 
windows.box.running.nrpe-nt -c sfx_hostdown"); }
else
{ system("/usr/lib/nagios/plugins/check_nrpe -H 
windows.box.running.nrpe-nt -c sfx_hostup"); }

sfx_hostdown.cmd:
@echo off
sndrec32 /play /cluse "c:\nrpe\host_down.wav":
echo Command completed successfully
exit 0

HTH!
