The included simple Perl script is a rule-based notification addon for Nagios. Nagios has its own notification logic which decides whether a notification for an alert should be sent. If this script is defined as the notification commands, further conditions can be defined by admins to control whether a notification should be "actually" sent. By using this script, Nagios admins can decide: WHO should (or not) be notified, notification for WHICH hosts/services should (or not) be controlled, on WHAT states should (or not) be concerned, at WHEN a notification should (or not) be sent, HOW to send a notification, and so on. All these features are implemented by defining some "rules" which will be matched by this script while Nagios hand off a notification to it. Rules are defined in a plain text config file (see inside), no database is needed. Changes of v1.1 ------------------ * Support partial wildcard in some fields of rules, e.g. "abc*" is a group of all object IDs beginning with "abc" * Group matching has a priority between exactly matching and wildcard matching (*) * Admins can supply an extra condition, by matching a Nagios macro with some values, in each rule * Some bugs fixed
