Following scripts were added  in hobbit-alerts.cfg:

    SCRIPT          echo "my_linux disk went to warning state" |smbclient
-M cici SCRIPT          echo "disk reached warning state" |write hobbit

The color of disk changed while state reached warning level, but scripts
had no effect.

Or is syntax of the script wrong? how to write my own alert script?
It's better to put the commands in a script alert.sh and call that script:
SCRIPT alert.sh

With the content of alert.sh:

#!/bin/sh
echo "my_linux disk went to warning state" |smbclient M cici
echo "disk reached warning state" |write hobbit
