nagios & SMS notifications.
(found som posts from 2004 but no answers)
Looking for some help on installing a SMS gateway and a Phone or GSM modem on a linux server for nagios. We already have a GSM modem from nokia called Nokia 30 but this is VERY old and i have not found any info on using it on linux (no info @ nokia's support page either :( ) It might be easyer to install a mail > sms service and just send mails from nagios to that service, but i have not found any "free" software capable of doing this. Any help on this subject would be apriciated. :D Thanx in advance.. |

SMS FoxBox Small linux gateway to send from Nagios SMS Notification
Hi,
Take a look here: http://www.smsfoxbox.it/foxbox/tutor...ification.html There is a full tutorial avilable also on Nagios wiki http://community.nagios.org/wiki/ind...TEMS_SMSFoxBox On how to integrate a SMS gateway bult wiat a modem with a SIM card, to Nagios to obtain SMS notification. The guide is based on Nagios 3.0.6. |
For a larger deployment, you'll want a proper out-of-band channel, which means a dedicated GSM modem (or at least a dedicated phone); but for a smaller site (like a personal blog), it's probably easier just to use a web-to-SMS gateway like clickatell and something like wget to trigger the actual sending of the message. See here for how I did that:

Is sms a must? I used sms in the past with nagios, but in the current day of smartphones, email is a much cheaper option.
