Nagios keeps sendin old sms notification.

Post by azmi »

Hi,
Yesterday, I restarted my Nagios box and today Nagios is sending old and irrelevant sms notification only to my users.

My question is how do I flush the old sms archieve in my Nagios.

FYI: I'm a newbie in Nagios, please let me know if there's any information you need.

Thanks highly on your help.

I'm guessing you're sending SMS through an email gateway, in which case the problem is likely that sendmail/postfix/whatever you're using is holding onto messages that failed to get sent.

To help any further, I'd need to know what you're using to send the notifications (if you're not sure, just give your OS information and I'll assume you used the default), and whether the messages it's sending out are duplicates of old messages or not.
