What a cool idea..
Fairly simple.
Use service escalation to change the contact for 2nd notification onward, and
set the contact's notification 'command' to be the perl routine to poke
asterisk.
define serviceescalation{
host_name nt-3
service_description Processor Load
first_notification 2
last_notification 2
notification_interval 30
contacts +thephone
escalation_options c
}
define contact{
contact_name jdoe
alias John Doe
host_notifications_enabled 1
service_notifications_enabled 1
service_notification_period 24x7
host_notification_period 24x7
service_notification_options c,u
host_notification_options d,u,r
service_notification_commands notify-by-phone
host_notification_commands host-notify-by-phone
email [email protected]
pager
[email protected]
address1 [email protected]
address2 555-555-5555
}
define command{
command_name notify-by-phone
command_line /usr/local/bin/service-phone.pl
}
define command{
command_name host-notify-by-phone
command_line /usr/local/bin/host-phone.pl
}
