Nagios sounds like it is configured fine, it sounds like your local
machine isn't configured to send emails though - nagios uses the native
linux way of sending emails, which often isn't configured.
Try the following:
# echo "Test from nagios"|mail -s Test root
# echo "Test from nagios"|mail -s Test u...@yourcompany.com
# echo "Test from nagios"|mail -s Test u...@gmail.com
That should send three emails. I would guess the first one works. If the
others don't work, you need to set up your mail transfer agent (exim,
sendmail etc) to point to a "smarthost", your companies internal smtp
gateway.
Alternativly, you could do the following
1) Change your command definition
define command{
command_name notify-by-email
command_line *******
}
Replace the end of the line, which probably says something like
| /bin/mail -s "Host $HOSTSTATE$ alert for $HOSTNAME$!" $CONTACTEMAIL$
With
| $USER1$/sendEmail.pl $CONTACTEMAIL$ "** $NOTIFICATIONTYPE$ alert -
$HOSTALIAS$/$SERVICEDESC$ is $SERVICESTATE$ **"
E.G. (this only works for nagios 2.9)
/usr/bin/printf "%b" "***** Nagios 2.9 *****\n\nNotification
Type: $NOTIFICATIONTYPE$\n\nService: $SERVICEDESC$\nHost:
$HOSTALIAS$\nAddress: $HOSTADDRESS$\nState: $SERVICESTATE$\n\nDate/Time:
$LONGDATETIME$\n\nAdditional Info:\n\n$SERVICEOUTPUT$" |
$USER1$/sendEmail.pl $CONTACTEMAIL$ "** $NOTIFICATIONTYPE$ alert -
$HOSTALIAS$/$SERVICEDESC$ is $SERVICESTATE$ **"
2) Add "sendEmail.pl" (http://195.50.87.86/~npf/sendEmail.pl) to your
libexec directory, and change the "mailServer" and "from" to be valid
for your local network.
