Hey Guys,

I am trying to find a way I can get a SMS notification to be sent out when a computer has been rebooted.

My SMS gateway is working fine. The indepth report on the CPU says that the machine has been rebooted, but the status of the CPU never goes off green.

How do I set it up to tell me when it has been rebooted when the status doesn’t change?

It is done in client configuration. In hobbit-client.cfg :

The file defines a series of rules:

UP : Changes the "cpu" status when the system has rebooted

recently,

For every client I use: HOST=xxxxxxx.is UP 10

This rule triggers a yellow warning, for the cpu. So in hobbit-alerts.cfg you would have to use something like: HOST=xxxxxxx.is COLOR=yellow SCRIPT /usr/local/bin/hobbit-sms.sh 123456789
