<p class="MsoNormal">Hi all,<br>
<br>
Im at my wits end.<br>
Spent 2 days now trying to get Nagios to SMS me through gnokii but a lunar eclipse is a more frequent event!<br>
<br>
So i have Ubuntu 11.04 installed using postfix to email me alerts (works flawlessly)<br>
<br>
Now i also want a text message as a failover incase my Exchange server or internet line goes down.<br>
<br>
I have installed and configured gnokii to what i think is at a functioning level.<br>
I have a Nokia 6301 mobile hooked up to Ubuntu via USB cable.<br>
<br>
I can send a text message out through the phone via the CLI no issue at all with both my admin user logged in and also when i log in as the nagios user so i know i have the correct permissions on the ttyACM0 port that is assigned to the 6301.<br>
<br>
Will Nagios send an SMS - will it f*£$!!<br>
<br>
Here is my command.cfg relevant part<br>
<br>
<b><span style="color:red"># 'notify-host-by-sms' command definition<br>
define command{<br>
command_name notify-host-by-sms<br>
command_line /usr/bin/printf "%.120s" "***** Nagios ***** $NOTIFICATIONTYPE$: Host $HOSTALIAS$ is $HOSTSTATE$ | /usr/bin/gnokii --sendsms $CONTACTPAGER$
<br>
}<br>
<br>
