SV: sms alert using gnokii

[Allan Hansen, INBODAN]

As you do not describe what errors you get, it is a bit difficult to provide
an exact answer.

The advise I got when setting this up about 6 months ago, was to use some
form of gateway between Nagios and Gnokii. 
Gnokii needs some kind of queing mechanism, otherwise it might choke when
sending multiple notifications.

I am using Alamin (www.alamin.org). It was somewhat difficult to set up, but
runs fine. I can't find my notes about the installation, but I remember this
has been on the list in the past.

Emne: [Nagios-users] sms alert using gnokii


Hi to all!

How can I make gnokii works on my nagios.I have my
gnokii running using a command prompt. I can send and
received a text message using the command :

# /usr/local/sbin/gnokii --sendsms <cell phone #>


- Here is my sample conifiguration in contacts.cfg
file

# 'nagios' contact definition
define contact{
        contact_name                    nagios
        alias                           Nagios Admin
        service_notification_period     24x7
        host_notification_period        24x7
        service_notification_options    w,u,c,r
        host_notification_options       d,u,r
        service_notification_commands  
notify-by-email,host-notify-by-sms
        host_notification_commands     
host-notify-by-email,host-notify-by-sms
        email    root at mallinux.test.com.ph     
        }


- Here is my sample configuration of misccommands.cfg


# 'host-notify-by-sms' command definition
define command
command_name    host-notify-by-sms
command_line    /usr/bin/printf  "Host '$HOSTALIAS$'
is $ $HOSTSTATE$\nInfo: $OUTPUT$\nTime: $DATETIME$" | /usr/local/sbin/gnokii
--sendsms 09201234567
        }

# 'notify-by-sms' command definition
define command{
        command_name    notify-by-sms
        command_line    /usr/bin/printf  "Service:
$SERVICEDESC$\nHost: $HOSTNAME$\nAddress:
$HOSTADDRESS$\nState: $SERVICESTATE$\nInfo:
$OUTPUT$\nDate: $DATETI
ME$" | /usr/local/sbin/gnokii --sendsms 09201234567
        }

I have included the .gnokiirc config file in both
/root/ directory and /home/nagios/ directory

Can someone tells me what wrong with my config?

Thanks a lot to all!

Bernie
