Has anybody out there configured Nagios to alert via telephone? I don't mean like a SMS message or the like. I figure I am more likely to answer my home phone ringing at 0 dark hundred than my cell phone's little email beeps. Also, that would let me alert others that are not actively watching the cellphone, blackberry, etc.
I want the system to call my home phone and tell me:
"This is your friendly office Nagios system. Host X is down - service Y is not running. The time is now 02:43. Get your butt out of bed and fix it!"
I am thinking an interface with something like Asterisk might work. But, not having set up Asterisk before, I am not quite sure where to go. So, I plan on working on getting into it.
I have found one other application that did something like this, and when I demod it, the voice quality really stunk, and I could not configure what it said, etc. And, I did not like the monitor aspect of it as well as I like Nagios.
Just wondering if I am reinventing the wheel, or does someone has a spare in the garage?
