How to create your own notification message?

How to assign different notification messages, for Critical and Warning levels?

This should get you started:

How could I configure it so:

if -w = email
if -c = text

When a service reaches the warning level, it will email. When it reaches a critical state, it will text (meaning it will use the phone number from the contact and send the alert via a text message instead of email)

You would need to create your own event handler and apply it to the relevant services (or templates). You can find more information about how these work generally on http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/3_0/ ... dlers.html.

Thank you!
