Write your own code to parse the alert and generate the SMS message that
suits you.

The problem with no SMS notification was a slow email server. So, SMS
works fine. However, the message is way to short.

For example, if it is alerting on a disk threshold, then all I get on
the SMS is the server name, and the test name that is failing. I don't
actually get the partition (filesystem) that exceeded the threshold.

If I use PLAIN or just leave it at default, I get to much information
and it overruns the poor little cell phone.

Does anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks...james

So, I tried this in hobbit-alerts.cfg

MAIL os-primary-pager FORMAT=sms REPEAT=15 COLOR=RED DURATION>5m
DURATION<35 RECOVERED

The notifications log said it was sent to the phone.
(os-primary-pager is in the mail aliases file)

However, the phone never received the messages. Prior to putting in the
FORMAT=sms, it sent pages fine. 

Thanks...James
