Hi,

we have a subscription with a local provider (if you are in Switzerland, I can recommend them : www.ecall.ch, even if I'm not related). They propose many interfaces to send SMS and page messages, including some sort of TCP socket with TAB-separated fields input.

I have then written a small python script called as event command (See Events / Event manager / Commands) to forward important alarms to my provider.

Of course, that doesn't work when the TCP/IP connection to my provider is broken. In this case, I fallback to a localy-attached modem and the Ubuntu package "smsclient" to a Swiss SMSC.

Hope this helps,
Charles

I have done this sort of thing with the open source sms_client utility.  Have you seen this post - http://community.zenoss.org/message/59672#59672 http://community.zenoss.org/message/59672#59672 ??

Note: If you want the pager field to goto someone's SMS "email" like mailto:***@vtext.com ***@vtext.com you can do the followin.

Create folder $ZENHOME/scripts/
Create the script below.
Page Command : $ZENHOME/scripts/mail.pl
File: mail.pl
#!/usr/bin/perl


my $title="Alert";
my $to=$ARGV[0];


$from= 'Zenoss';
$subject=$title;


open(MAIL, "|/usr/sbin/sendmail -t");


## Mail Header
print MAIL "To: $to\n";
print MAIL "From: $from\n";
print MAIL "Subject: $subject\n\n";
## Mail Body
foreach $line ( <STDIN> ) {
    chomp( $line );
    print MAIL "$line\n";
}
close(MAIL);

As long as you have sendmail configured then you should be seeing pages.
