Just change the host in question to use a bogus threshold for a few
minutes? Like set the disk threshold to 5 percent, or something? Then
change it back when you are done.

Thanks Martin,
Is there a way using the same method to cause the alert to activate. For
example, I want a host to activate on disk% has reached 98%, and go
ahead and send a test page to my cell phone so I can check the format.
Thanks again....James

Thanks, I'll test out the SMS Format.
Can someone give me some pointers on checking the configuration
file and also sending out a test alert. I've looked through the
man page and tried a few things, but it didn't seem to work.
Thanks...James

Also, We received Cell Phones in place of the pagers, and
now when I send messages to the cell phones, the cell phone
doesn't display it properly. It's to much data for the cell phones
they gave us. They are Nokia 6085's. When I get a text it
says 1 of 10..or .. missing text.. I'm guessing I'm going
to have to filter all my Hobbit alerts now.
There is a FORMAT option for alerts. In particular, you probably want
"FORMAT=SMS". See the hobbit-alerts.cfg man page and the example in
the alerts file itself.
