Following scripts were added  in hobbit-alerts.cfg:
   HOST=linux_1   SERVICE=disk
    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?

Thanks very much.

Sorry, the parameter for the SCRIPT command must be a single executable.

Put the commands you have here into a shell script, and use the filename
of the script in your SCRIPT rule.

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
