#!/bin/bash ---> this thing worked and i got the email. However when i setup my actual notify-service-by-email , i did get the email but it was blank -no information at all. I have setup like that;

Code: Select all

# 'notify-service-by-email' command definition
define command{
        command_name    notify-service-by-email
        command_line    /usr/local/nagios/libexec/messageone_recovery /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\nURL: $SERVICEACTIONURL$\n" | /usr/bin/mail -s "** $NOTIFICATIONTYPE$ Service Alert: $HOSTALIAS$/$SERVICEDESC$ is $SERVICESTATE$ **" $CONTACTEMAIL$
        }

As your actual mail command is in the custom script, remove the printf statement and replace with the necessary macros:

Code: Select all

# 'notify-service-by-email' command definition
define command{
        command_name    notify-service-by-email
        command_line    /usr/local/nagios/libexec/messageone_recovery "$NOTIFICATIONTYPE$" "$SERVICEDESC$" "$HOSTALIAS$" "$HOSTADDRESS$" "$SERVICESTATE$" "$LONGDATETIME$" "$SERVICEOUTPUT$" "$SERVICEACTIONURL$" "$CONTACTEMAIL$"
}

Okay guys, i have modified the templates and contact and after that its not working at all. I am pasting my command.cfg, contact.cfg, and template.cfg.
I have not changed anything in the script and its working from command line.

Code: Select all

# 'notify-service-by-email' command definition
define command{
        command_name    notify-service-by-email-test
        command_line    /usr/local/nagios/libexec/messageone_recovery "$NOTIFICATIONTYPE$" "$SERVICEDESC$" "$HOSTALIAS$" "$HOSTADDRESS$" "$SERVICESTATE$" "$LONGDATETIME$" "$SERVICEOUTPUT$" "$SERVICEACTIONURL$" "$CONTACTEMAIL$"
        }

Code: Select all

define contact{
        contact_name              Recovery-phone 
        use                             generic-contact      
        alias                           Phone test                     
        email                          [email protected]       
        }

#define contact{
        contact_name              Recovery-email                             
        use                             generic-contact-email-test             
        alias                           Recovery email test                         
        email                          [email protected]      
       }

define contactgroup{
        contactgroup_name       admins
        alias                   Nagios Administrators
        members                Recovery-email, Recovery-phone
        }

We did it guys...Working as expected, getting only alert calls and recovery emails. Awesome.....
quick question, can we run notify by host with same script ? I know we can do with separate script and change the macros but I was curious to run from the same script but how ???

Using it for host notifications as well? This should work the same.
