Pass environment to script in alerter.c

[limo]

Hi all,

here is small patch which add environment to external scripts for alerter. I use it for better macro evaluation in external alerter. It will set this environment variables:

ZABBIX_ALERTID
ZABBIX_ACTIONID
ZABBIX_ALERTCLOCK
ZABBIX_MEDIATYPEID
ZABBIX_ALERTSTATUS
ZABBIX_ALERTRETRIES
ZABBIX_ALERTDELAY

Now I can take actionid in user script and find triggerid, hosts used in trigger and items used in trigger to evaluate some macros. I will do some example script later.

Feel free to use!

Thanx a lot !

Btw, I have asked in another thread, if zabbix will support alert limits. It is important for me to know if I should make limits in external software or you are planing it?

There are some false alarms or too many alarms generated and I want to limit eg. maximum number of sms sent per hour. If there is more alerts, limiter should send only one message that there are other alerts waiting.

Thanx again !
