Nagios Support Forum

Hi Nagios,

Problem:
I have SMS GateWay connected to my Nagios Core 4.3.2 and very pleased to this but I have the issue that services still sending to the SMS Gateway even they do not figured at Nagios Interface. Until now I have done following:

1. removed follwing at my Command.cfg and contact.cfg
"define command{
# command_name notify-service-by-sms - so I only have notify-host-by-sms in my contact.cfg file and command.cfg file

2. Comment out the to services from my windows.cfg fil (1. service_description Explorer) (2. service_description W3SVC) and they do not show up at the nagios interface too but I stiil get messages at my SMS GateWay

I do always restart nagios services

Summa sumarrum I will only have messages from the host notification when a host crashes. The Services I will get through the mail notification.

Anybody who know the trigger by this issue. My SMS GateWay Partner Braintower says that it a Nagios issue??

Can you post this file from the Nagios server so we can check the servers settings? If is a specific host or service that sending the SMS messages, is so what is the name of it?

Hi Tgriep,

thank you for answering me so quickly I post you the object.cache, command.cfg, contact.cfg and the windows.cfg files. Then you have a greater overview.

Hi Tgriep,

the company Braintower has created a Perl script "sendsms.pl "for this purpose which is observed in the command.cfg file and has it location in /usr/local/bin -

I post also this file to your information.

For your info: the command.cfg is attached by the first mail I posted to you today.

I will take my holyday the next 3 weeks so I'm not sure I will respond you I the meantime. Keep in touch

Thanks for the files.
I think that there are multiple copies of the Nagios processes running and that would cause the issue you are seeing.
To fix this, login as root to the Nagios server and run the following commands. Let us know what you find.

Hi Tgriep,

it worked Thanks a lot
