Alert sound on trigger

[morgolis]

Howdy,
I would like to know how to set Zabbix up to play a specific .wav file when an alert / event his. I was told in the irc channel that it's already set up but it's not working on my implentation.

I have 2 different servers running w/ Zabbix. One has zabbix1.1alpha11 and other has zabbix1.1beta2

Any help on this?

BUMP! Still curious if there is a way to make Zabbix play a sound when an alert / event happens.

you could just write a script that plays your alert sound.

then define that script as a media type under the general configuration.

assigning the script to a user (either existing or just for this purpose) and having that user alerted as the result of a trigger action should run the script.

Very Good idea! However i really suck at writing in depth scripts, suggestions? Perhaps a link to a site?
