Hi Tobias! I've found suitable for me solution - I use a -l switch in gnokii which is sets the maximum amount of symbols in the SMS. By default it is 160. So my current command look like this:
define command{ command_name notify-service-by-sms command_line echo "$HOSTNAME$.secretdomain.ru/$HOSTALIAS$/$SERVICEDESC$/$SERVICESTATE$:$SERVIC EOUTPUT$ [$SHORTDATETIME$]" |gnokii --sendsms $CONTACTPAGER$ -l 220 >> /usr/local/nagios/var/gnokii.log > 2>$1 } With this command I can send SMS with more than 160 symbols but less than 220 and it's suitable for my needs. Yours faithfully, Ilya. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Tobias Klausmann Sent: Monday, May 05, 2008 2:45 PM To: nagios-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: Re: [Nagios-users] Strange notification problem Hi!

The 160-character limit is inherent to SMS (over GSM), as described here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Short_message_service#Message_size So there is very little you can do about it. You could split the messages in two, but I advise against it.
