<br>Please excuse me if this mail all ready posted to the list.<br><div class="gmail_quote"><br><br>Hi all ;<br><br>I followed this tutorial <br><a href="http://www.nagiosexchange.org/cgi-bin/pages/Detailed/1855.html" target="_blank">http://www.nagiosexchange.org/cgi-bin/pages/Detailed/1855.html</a><br>
<br><br><br> I would like to test the sms alert system from a GSM SMS gateway , I have added these lines in commands.cfg<br>
<br><br>define command{<br> command_name service_notify_with_sms<br> command_line $USER1$/notify_sms -a MY_MOBILE_NUMBER -u MY_USER_NAME -p <br>MY_PASSWORD -m \ '$NOTIFICATIONTYPE$:$HOSTNAME$ is $SERVICESTATE$ ($SERVICEOUTPUT$)\' -t $CONTACTPAGER$<br>
}<br><br><br>I have 3 doubts <br><br>doubt 1) is the above configuration correct ?<br><br> where MY_MOBILE_NUMBER = my cell phone number and <br>MY_USER_NAME = sms gateway user account<br><br>and<br><br>MY_PASSWORD = sms gateway user password <br>
<br><br><br><br>doubt 2 ) why I have to add again the following config section ? i mean the purpose of the following lines ?<br><br>
define command{
<pre><code> command_name host_notify_with_sms<br> command_line /usr/lib/nagios/plugins/notify_sms -a 1012345 -u myusername_for_gw -p mypassword_for_gw -m \'$NOTIFICATIONTYPE$: $HOSTNAME$ is $HOSTSTATE$ ($HOSTOUTPUT$)\' -t $CONTACTPAGER$<br>
<br></code></pre>
}
<br>
<br><br><br>doubt 3) if I added the 2 define command sections in
commands.cfg as in the website , can I get an sms alert ?anything
else I have to add in localhost.cfg ? (where I have services to
check ssh,ping,http in the localhost . ) <br>
<br><br>These are the Nagios packages I have in my box <br><br>nagios-2.9_1<br>nagios-plugins-1.4.9_1,1<br><br><br><a href="http://www.nagiosexchange.org/cgi-bin/jump.cgi?ID=1855&view=File2;d=1" target="_blank">notify_sms-1.1.tar.gz</a><br>
<br>I untared this notify_sms-1.1.tar.gz package and copied it to /usr/local/libexec/nagios/ (in this directory I hvae all the <br>check_ssh check_ping etc etc comamnds by default) <br><br><br><br>Let me request you to clarify my doubts , sorry for my ignorance ,<br>
<br>NOTE : The SMS gateway is in another PC , but I configured Nagios in a localbox ,but both machines in the same network . <br>so can I use this SMS gateway ? how to make this sms gateway service available for nagios box ?<br>
<br>Thanks in Advance<br>
