You should be able to do that using hostgroups and duplicating the
contacts if necessary.
You could have a contact called 'User 1' and another 'User 1 -
SMS'. User 1 wouldn't get SMS and will only receive notifications
about non-critical stuff. User 1 - SMS, on the other hand, would be
getting both email and SMS for critical systems.
Thanks for the suggestion, this might be a viable option if I wasnt
using AD/LDAP for authentication.
I cant realistically create two accounts in the directory for each
person logging in though.
Developers, is this something that is likely to be addressed in
future? (Escalations and granular SMS/email alerting on a host by
host basis).
Of course you cant just code every feature that is requested but
this is a bit of a show stopper at the moment for our particular
requirements.
It is on our roadmap, but not immediately (probably > 6 months). You
can sponsor this feature if you want which pushes it up the list. It
also means you get to help decide the design and ensures it will meet
your needs.
I'm sure this must also be a requirement for many other people, or
not?
This is a common request, for Opsview and for Nagios, but the general
way around it is to have multiple contacts, as Rafael has suggested.
We're not sure whether to do it at the Opsview layer (have the concept
of a user with multiple contact profiles), or do to something at the
Nagios level (a contact has a more flexible list of contact objects
with different filtering for these objects). Either way will require a
lot of work.
