Re: [Nagios-users] Slightly-OT - Notification management
Ugo, What you are looking for here are the blackberry-specific concepts of both profiles and exceptions. First, setup the email address from your nagios alerting system inside your blackberry contacts. Second, setup two custom profiles on the blackberry - call one nagios_on-call and one nagios_vacation. Third, setup the alerting methods you would like for each profile (on-call loudly alerts you, nagios_vacation quietly alerts or does not alert at all). Fourth, inside your current blackberry alert profile, setup a custom exception. Tie the exception to the nagios addressbook entry, and then set the blackberry alert profile to use either your on_call or your vacation profile - depending on how you wish to be nagged currently. Steven To: nagios-users@lists.sourceforge.net From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: Thu, 8 May 2008 08:11:11 -0400 Subject: [Nagios-users] Slightly-OT - Notification management Hi, This is only indirectly related to nagios, as it is more related to notifications management. We are currently using nagios and receive alerts by email and by text messages (e-mails) sent to our cell phones. I am looking for using Blackberry devices instead, but I have one concern: Assuming that we have a BlackBerry Enterprise Server, is it possible to, for example: - Configure something so that it is possible to be notified (vibration, sound) by our BB device only if the e-mail received is a nagios alert. The goal of all this is that , outside work hours, our staff would read their regular e-mail if they'd like to, but wouldn't be bothered by the BB device for regular e-mail. However, if it is a nagios alert, they would be alerted. Thanks, Ugo - This SF.net email is sponsored by the 2008 JavaOne(SM) Conference Don't miss this year's exciting event.
