We are sending alerts via SMS, and this is basically how we have set it up.

I have a script which takes a number of arguments (phone numbers), when run, it 
will read in the message from stdin and then send this to all the phonenumbers 
listed as arguments. Get this running before involving zenoss.

When you have the script working, go to Settings in the zenoss web-admin 
interface, and enter the path to the script followed by $RECIPIENT in the 'Page 
Command'

ie.
Page Command: /path/to/mysms_sender $RECIPIENT

Zenoss will stream the message in question via STDIN which is why you need to 
make the script read from STDIN.

After this has been setup, it is simply setting up some alerting profiles that 
will send an page and remember to enter page numbers on the users that needs to 
receive them :-)

We have been running with this setup for maybe a year now, and it hasn't given 
us any problems.

Regards
Thomas
