Many Kudos to our esteemed presenters Jason and Ian for an excellent presentation on a really exciting project.
(Can you tell I use Nagios every day?) A member of the peanut gallery (Thank you David) mentioned an off the cuff idea of using Asterisk and Festival to have the system call your voice # with alerts. At first I thought this idea just so much silliness, but in talking it over with people, it occurred to me that this, with a prompt to dial 7 (or whatever your favorite number is) to acknowledge the problem would be excellent. My knowledge of Asterisk not being what it perhaps should be, I just wanted to know if this is remotely possible? Is it, perhaps, easily done? The only thing that Asterisk would have to do is echo a line into a file so that Nagios can pick it up and act on the acknowledgment. Thanks to the presenters, and thanks to any Asterisk people for their advice.
