Nagio & TEC

hi all,

I need to forward Nagios alarm events to TEC (Tivoli Enterprise Monitor).

For this reason I wrote a couple of shell-scripts to handle Nagios
servicestate and change them in TEC suitable severity codes.

Then I try to forward these event to TEC by using a Tivoli command but
I have problems with SERVICEOUTPUT/HOSTOUTPUT which are truncated.

let's make some fixed points; these are the twho commands I defined in
my commands.cfg file:

# 'service-notify-by-postemsg' command definition

define command{

command_name service-notify-by-postemsg

command_line $USER3$/service-nagios-postemsg.sh `$DATE$` `$TIME$` `$HO

STNAME$` `$SERVICESTATE$` `$SERVICEOUTPUT$`

}

# 'host-notify-by-postemsg' command definition

define command{

command_name host-notify-by-postemsg

command_line $USER3$/host-nagios-postemsg.sh $DATE$ $TIME$ $HOSTNAME$

$HOSTSTATE$ $HOSTOUTPUT$

}

the two files have the following inside them:

date=$1

time=$2

hostname=$3

servicestate=$4

serviceoutput=$5

postemsg -f $post_conf_file -r $severity -m "$date : $time :
$serviceoutput" hostname=$hostname Nagios NAGIOS

---

date=$1

time=$2

hostname=$3

hoststate=$4

hostoutput=$5

postemsg -f $post_conf_file -r $severity -m "$date : $time :
$hostoutput" hostname=$hostname Nagios NAGIOS

for those who are notfamiliar with Tivoli, the "-m" is the message flag;

what really happen to me is that the $hostoutput wich should contain
the $HOSTOUTPUT$ text is truncated right after the first word, for
istance:

$HOSTOUTPUT$ = JMX ATTRIBUTE CRITICAL -
jboss.j2ee:jndiName=ejb/GameTransactionSystem,service=EJB-StateString:

become $hostoutput = JMX

do you have any idea?

thanx in advance,

Fabio
