I setup a nagios for testing to another box instead of playing in the stable nagios that was runnin. I already have email notification but sometimes I don't open my email in midnight so I need an alert ans I choose sms. I have an officemate who have a linux box and setup a url where if I visit the url it will send a txt message. Here is the sample url: http://x.x.x.x/testserver?page=sms_sendsmsmessage&multi_recipients=+123456789&smsmessage=testing&username=nagios&NOEXPIRE 123456789 = sms contact number testing = message of the sms Now, I have setup in commands.cfg the ff: define command{ command_name notify-by-txt command_line /usr/bin/printf "%b" "Service: $SERVICEDESC$\nHost: $HOSTNAME$\nAddress: $HOSTADDRESS$\nState: $SERVICESTATE$\nInfo: $SERVICE OUTPUT$\nDate: $LONGDATETIME$" |/usr/bin/links "http://x.x.x.x/testserver?page=sms_sendsmsmessage&multi_recipients=+123456789&smsmessage=$HOSTNAME&&username=nagios&NOEXPIRE &" } Then I set my contacts.cfg define contact{ contact_name nagios-admin alias Nagios Admin service_notification_period 24x7 host_notification_period 24x7 service_notification_options w,u,c,r host_notification_options d,r service_notification_commands notify-by-txt host_notification_commands notify-by-txt pager http://x.x.x.x/testserver?page=sms_sendsmsmessage&multi_recipients=+123456789&smsmessage=testing&username=nagios&NOEXPIRE } I see the logs in nagios the notify-by-txt but I don't receive a sms message. But when I command it via shell, I receive a sms message. Could someone direct me to right commands in notification commands? Can I set a sample script just to test notification commands? </div> <hr size=1> <a href="http://sg.rd.yahoo.com/ph/mail/domainchoice/mail/signature/*http://mail.promotions.yahoo.com/newdomains/ph/"> Get your new Email address! </a> Grab the Email name you've always wanted before someone else does!</body></html>
