Copyrights Copyright (©) 2017 Heini Holm Andersen [email protected] Installation: * Copy the php-html-email folder to the Nagios plugins directory (usually named 'libexec') and make sure all files are owned by the user nagios uses and also that all files are made executable by the nagios user! Then configure Nagios. Nagios Configuration: * For the host and services notification alerts, add these lines to your Nagios commands file (usually located in the Nagios configurations directory and named 'objects') as command definitions: # 'notify-host-by-email-html' command definition define command { command_name notify-host-by-email-html command_line $USER1$/php-html-email/nagios_host_mail "$NOTIFICATIONTYPE$" "$HOSTNAME$" "$HOSTALIAS$" "$HOSTSTATE$" "$HOSTADDRESS$" "$HOSTOUTPUT$" "$SHORTDATETIME$" "$CONTACTEMAIL$" "$TOTALHOSTSUP$" "$TOTALHOSTSDOWN$" "$NOTIFICATIONAUTHOR$" "$NOTIFICATIONCOMMENT$" "$LONGDATETIME$" "$HOSTDURATION$" "$HOSTDURATIONSEC$" "$LASTHOSTCHECK$" "$LASTHOSTSTATECHANGE$" "$NOTIFICATIONISESCALATED$" "$HOSTATTEMPT$" "$MAXHOSTATTEMPTS$" } # 'notify-service-by-email-html' command definition define command { command_name notify-service-by-email-html command_line $USER1$/php-html-email/nagios_service_mail "$NOTIFICATIONTYPE$" "$HOSTNAME$" "$HOSTALIAS$" "$HOSTSTATE$" "$HOSTADDRESS$" "$SERVICEOUTPUT$" "$SHORTDATETIME$" "$SERVICEDESC$" "$SERVICESTATE$" "$CONTACTEMAIL$" "$SERVICEDURATIONSEC$" "$SERVICEEXECUTIONTIME$" "$TOTALSERVICESWARNING$" "$TOTALSERVICESCRITICAL$" "$TOTALSERVICESUNKNOWN$" "$LASTSERVICEOK$" "$LASTSERVICEWARNING$" "$SERVICENOTIFICATIONNUMBER$" "$LONGSERVICEOUTPUT$" "$NOTIFICATIONAUTHOR$" "$NOTIFICATIONCOMMENT$" "$SERVICEDURATION$" "$NOTIFICATIONISESCALATED$" "$SERVICEATTEMPT$" "$MAXSERVICEATTEMPTS$" } * Now that the command object has been configured, you must tell your contacts to use this new command. I have a generic-contact template that all of my individual contacts inherit from, thus I only have to update the template to use the new command, like seen here below: define contact{ name generic-contact register 0 service_notification_commands notify-service-by-email-html host_notification_commands notify-host-by-email-html Restart Nagios to pick up the changes.
