Re: [Nagios-users] Notification scripting question

2007-03-15 Thread Mihai Tanasescu 
Hello,


Thanks for the advice...I can't believe it was so simple (the script and 
selecting text based on the number passed as a parameter).

Hi,
I have two distinct suggestions out this problem.

First, you could define a bash/perl/c or any other language basis (embedded
perl or c is suggested for speed issues - if you have a less notification
frequency of 10 notifs in a minute) script. Then, certainly, you are passing
the mobile number as a parametre. So you could select a text inside that
script. At last that script will be the trigger for SMS. So notification
scipt will be your new bash (or other) script.

Second, you could define "n" (which is the number of different texts)
different SMS notification commands in (etc/misccommands in old versions,
and etc/command.etc in nagios 2.x). But you have to say that, this person
will be notified with this command for each.

I hope it is a bit picturable. If you have questions, I can be more clear on
this.

Hello,


I've just installed Nagios on a machine for the first time and have read
a little throught the docs and I'm now starting to get the hang of it.

From what I've read, for check_commands I can define a way to pass
arguments at runtime by using "command
parameter_1!parameter2!parameter_n" if I state $ARG1$...$ARGn$ in
the definition part.

Is there anything like that for the notification commands ?

What I'd like to do is send personalized notifications based on the
contact specified in my configuration.
I'm trying to call gammu/gnokii to send an SMS with different texts
depending on who's being notified and I'd like to avoid if possible the
definition of each and every particular notification command.

Is there any way to do this (something like specify in the notification
command just script-name "Custom Text" "mobile number" ) ?
Or do I have to create specific entries for each one of them ?

Not an area I'm particularly familiar with, but I guess you might find
your answer in http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/2_0/macros.html

hth,

[Nagios-users] Notification scripting question

2007-03-14 Thread Mihai Tanasescu 
Hello,


I've just installed Nagios on a machine for the first time and have read 
a little throught the docs and I'm now starting to get the hang of it.

 From what I've read, for check_commands I can define a way to pass 
arguments at runtime by using "command 
parameter_1!parameter2!parameter_n" if I state $ARG1$...$ARGn$ in 
the definition part.

Is there anything like that for the notification commands ?

What I'd like to do is send personalized notifications based on the 
contact specified in my configuration.
I'm trying to call gammu/gnokii to send an SMS with different texts 
depending on who's being notified and I'd like to avoid if possible the 
definition of each and every particular notification command.

Is there any way to do this (something like specify in the notification 
command just script-name "Custom Text" "mobile number" ) ?
Or do I have to create specific entries for each one of them ?
