You notification/media script will get 3 parameters from Zabbix:
- 1st arg: adressee ("Send to" in the media configuration screen). Typically you'd give the phone number for SMS notifications.
- 2nd arg: notification subject
- 3rd arg: notification body

That's how your script would be called by zabbix:

./sendsms.php 001122334455 "Alert Host: mycriticalhost" "Alert: Host mycriticalhost Trigger: HTTP down...."

Body and subject of course are what you've defined per action.

Dear,

The parameters are %1 %2 and %3?

And to send to the two scripts, I need to set up two different groups: one for sms and other for email, right?

Thanks,

Dear,

The parameters are %1 %2 and %3?

Depends on what langage you write you script (or binary).

If your script is a shell script, you'll get those values as $1, $2, $3...
If your "script" is a C binary, you'll pull those values from argc/argv...
If your script is written in perl, you get get args with $ARGV[0], $ARGV[1]...

This isn't zabbix-specific. Zabbix just runs your script/binary with three arguments just as you would from your shell.

And to send to the two scripts, I need to set up two different groups: one for sms and other for email, right?

First you would define two medias:
- Type: Script, using your custom scripts to send SMS (unless you have one of the supported GSM-modems)
- Type: E-Mail, using a custom email script (with authentication, I assume)


==> Edit: If you want to use a custom script for email, Media type would of course be "script" and not "Email".


Where and how notifications are sent depends on users.

Each user can have multiple Medias defined. Each media can be setup to only pass notifications depending on date/time and severity

Let's say:
Bob
--> SMS script, send to '0011223344' (phone) only 'High, Critical', only at by night
--> Email script: send to '[email protected]', any alerts, business hours
Alice
--> SMS script, send to '0102030405' (phone), any alerts, anytime
but no email
Oscar:
--> SMS script, send to '9988776655' (personal phone)
--> SMS script, send to '3344556677' (professional phone)

Send Perl Scripts SMS and Email Auth

Dear Calimero,

I do not know where is my error!
The Perl script run properly in the Debian Shell but not send message by the Zabbix.


My script:

#!/usr/bin/perl

print "content-type: text/html\n\n";
use CGI;
$cgi = new CGI;

$cel = $ARGV[0];
$title = $ARGV[1];
$msgx = $ARGV[2];

&enviasms;

# SOAP (Simple Object Access Protocol)
############################################

sub enviasms{

$dispatch = "send";
$account = "myaccount";
$code = "mypassword";
$msg = "$msgx";
$from = "Zabbix";
$to = "$cel";
$id = time();
$user = $id - 1;
$schedule = "";
$callbackOption = "";

$palavra = "000 - Message sent";

use LWP::Simple;

$result = get("http://system.human.com.br:8080/GatewayIntegration/msgSms.do?dispatch=send&account=$account&code=$cod e&msg=$msg&from=$from&to=$to&id=$id&schedule=$sche dule&callbackOption=$callbackOption");

if(!$result){
print "Error! SMS was not sent!";
} elsif($result =~/$palavra/i) {
print "SMS sent successfully";
}else{
print "SMS was not sent!";
}
}
