First of all I have made amendments to my config files regarding ip addresses and phone numbers, yet these changes are not taking effect, despite that I ran the check and restarted nagios. Can anyone help me out? Also I need to change the command for notify-by-epager, as I am changing sms gateway and need the contacts phonenumber in the subject of the sms. This is the command I am using…but how do I create the variable in the contact.cfg to correlate with the command. # 'host-notify-by-epager' command definition: for SMS messages (Host Issue) define command{ command_name host-notify-by-epager command_line /usr/bin/printf "%b" "$NOTIFICATIONTYPE$:$HOSTNAME$:$HOSTSTATE$:$DATETIME$:$OUTPUT$" | /bin/mail -s "$CONTACTPAGER$" 0061786897097@sms.####.com } I also want to create backup contact groups, but I only want the backup group to be notified after a host has been down for a certain time. What do I need to do? Cheers Zaineb </BODY> </HTML>
