Bad: being in a Soviet Russia job where *servers* run *you*!<br>
Worse: working where the people who are implementing the monitoring don't really understand what the servers do or why and aren't the people who are expected to answer the alarms.<div class="HOEnZb"><div class="h5">

Good: Zabbix. (In spite of my initial displeasure.)<br>
Better: Zabbix sending SMS alerts via mail gateways<br>
Best: Figuring out how to use Averages and changes so you don't SO MANY alerts<br>
DIE IN A FIRE KILL IT KILL IT: Every SMS coming in via a different number that changes every single time- but still in a pattern.<br>
<br>
At the old job, I had only a couple of servers. I only had a few messages.<br>
<br>
New job, LOTS of servers. Fewer messages than I had before I set up triggers properly, but still lots of messages. And every single one shows up in a different listing.<br>
<br>
I'm on an iphone. Has ANYBODY figured out how to shove these messages into the same address book entry, and even better into the same iMessage user every time?<br>
<br>
Darned hard to search on this, I found. I doubt there's a way.<br>
Barring this, has anybody setup a true SMS cell modem with Zabbix with AT&T? All the info on the zabbix site- and there's not much there- is old and mostly from Europe.<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
David<br>
