sms text

Post by ttewes »

Hi,

we use HostMonitor 6.42c on MS Server 2003
HostMonitor runs as service.

we use the "check NT EventLog" test.

If a error occure HostMonitor must send the Description of the NT EventLog via sms.

Our problem is that the Text in the Description is very long (over 500 characters) , that means that HostMonitor must send 4 sms for one error.

is thera a way to send only the first 160 Characters of the Description entry?
Because the important information are in the first 160 Characters.

That's impossible in version 6.42.
You may install version 6.74 and then download update at www.ks-soft.net/download/hm675.zip
We have added 2 undocumented options
- Pagers_MaxMsgLength
- SMS_MaxMsgLength
"Undocumented" means that the option is not accessible thru GUI. If you want to change max length of SMS messages, you should add "SMS_MaxMsgLength=<size>" line into [Misc] section of hostmon.ini file (<size> is a number between 40 and 4096, e.g. SMS_MaxMsgLength=155).
