Notification to external I/O ?

Post by Zodde »

Hi,

I've read the documentation about notifications and a many of the forum posts but can't find anything about sending notifications as an external I/O-signal.
We want to send the notification as an electric 24V-signal (via a PCI-express digital output card). It would then be a general summary alarm.

Does anyone know if there exists a plugin or example for this ?
Everything I can find is focused on email or SMS which is not useful for us.

Nagios will execute any script you want as a notification handler... as long as you know how to write the code that will interface with that card it shouldn't be too difficult to sort something out.

I don't however know of any existing notification handler that does this or even something similar unfortunately.
