Nagios + SMS = TRUE?

[Darren Harrison]

Hi Stefan,
Yes it is possible to have alerting just for non-work hours. There is a 
"nonworkhours" timeperiod set up by default but you can define any 
timeperiods that you need.

In our setup I have nonworkhours messages being sent to an email address 
provided by the cell phone company which is an email -> sms gateway. So we 
have after hours text messages...
You probably need to also create a specific "notify-by-sms" and 
"host-notify-by-sms" command since you have a limited number of characters 
to work with.

I haven't done it yet but it might be a good idea to look at txt'ing 
message on escalation as well...

Darren.
