The problem with no SMS notification was a slow email server. So, SMS works fine. However, the message is way to short.
For example, if it is alerting on a disk threshold, then all I get on the SMS is the server name, and the test name that is failing. I don't actually get the partition (filesystem) that exceeded the threshold.
If I use PLAIN or just leave it at default, I get to much information and it overruns the poor little cell phone.
Does anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks...james

So, I tried this in hobbit-alerts.cfg
MAIL os-primary-pager FORMAT=sms REPEAT=15 COLOR=RED DURATION>5m DURATION<35 RECOVERED
The notifications log said it was sent to the phone. (os-primary-pager is in the mail aliases file)
However, the phone never received the messages. Prior to putting in the FORMAT=sms, it sent pages fine.
Thanks...James
Write your own code to parse the alert and generate the SMS message that suits you.

Does anyone have any suggestions? I use FORMAT=TEXT and some perl magic to filter out the relevant lines from the full size message for disk, memory and procs.
if ( $type eq "disk" ) { foreach my $line (@message) { if ( $line =~ /&yellow (.*) \((.*)% used\) has reached the WARNING level \(.*%\)/ ) { $return .= "warn $1 $2% " } elsif ( $line =~ /&red (.*) \((.*)% used\) has reached the PANIC level \(.*%\)/ ) { $return .= "error $1 $2% " } } } elsif ( $type eq "memory" ) { foreach my $line (@message) { if ( $line =~ /&yellow +([a-z]+).+ (\d+)%/i ) { $return .= "warn $1 $2% " } elsif ( $line =~ /&red +([a-z]+).+ (\d+)%/i ) { $return .= "error $1 $2% " } else { } } } elsif ( $type eq "procs" ) { foreach my $line (@message) { if ( $line =~ /&yellow (.+)$/ ) { $return .= "warn $1 " } elsif ( $line =~ /&red (.+)$/ ) { $return .= "error $1 " } else { } } }

Yes, there was a book written about "Hobbit" by J.R.R. Tolkien. It even has a 3-book follow-up called "The Lord of the Rings" that was made into 3 block-buster movies.
