SMS API Integration With NMS

[rlinux57]

I have configured sms api with nagios but it won't work, i have added below code in commands.cfg file:

Code: Select all

# 'notify-host-by-sms' command definition
define command{
        command_name    notify-host-by-sms
        command_line    /usr/bin/printf "%b" "***** Nagios *****\n\nNotification Type: $NOTIFICATIONTYPE$\nHost: $HOSTNAME$\nState: $HOSTSTATE$\nAddress: $HOSTADDRESS$\nInfo: $HOSTOUTPUT$\n\nDate/Time: $LONGDATETIME$\n" | /usr/bin/php /usr/local/nagios/sms/sendsms.php "** $NOTIFICATIONTYPE$ Host Alert: $HOSTNAME$ is $HOSTSTATE$ **"
        }

# 'notify-service-by-sms' command definition
define command{
        command_name    notify-service-by-sms
        command_line    /usr/bin/printf "%b" "***** Nagios *****\n\nNotification Type: $NOTIFICATIONTYPE$\n\nService: $SERVICEDESC$\nHost: $HOSTALIAS$\nAddress: $HOSTADDRESS$\nState: $SERVICESTATE$\n\nDate/Time: $LONGDATETIME$\n\nAdditional Info:\n\n$SERVICEOUTPUT$\n" | /usr/bin/php /usr/local/nagios/sms/sendsms.php "** $NOTIFICATIONTYPE$ Service Alert: $HOSTALIAS$/$SERVICEDESC$ is $SERVICESTATE$ **"
        }

But when i run this file alone "/usr/bin/php /usr/local/nagios/sms/sendsms.php". It sends an sms.
I have attached the code example of sendsms.php.

@rlinux57 - did this have to do with your previous post, or are you still experiencing an issue?

Can you post the host / service and contact configuration that are using the notify-host-by-sms? Also, what are the permissions of /usr/local/nagios/sms/sendsms.php?

[rlinux57]

My previous post is regarding to email notification which has been fixed now. But i'm still facing issue with "notify by sms"

Code: Select all

[root@monitor ~]# ll /usr/local/nagios/sms/sendsms.php
-rwxrwx--x 1 nagios nagios 764 Mar 11 01:32 /usr/local/nagios/sms/sendsms.php

Code: Select all

	use				generic-contact		; Inherit default values from generic-contact template (defined above)
        alias                           Nagios Admin		; Full name of user

Can you su to the nagios user, and try to run the script from the command line again and see if it succeeds?

[rlinux57]

I have fixed the issue, it was happened due to wrong syntax in commands.cfg file. Kindly let me know how to setup timeperiod of notify by email/sms, it send same trap/event again and again after sometime.

[rkennedy]

Take a look at this link - in explains how time periods work and should answer your questions.
