Email alerts?

[msingerman]

Hello all,

First off, I would like to apologize if this information is covered elsewhere or if asking about it is not appreciated on this forum. If either if the case, I would very much appreciate it if someone could please point me in the correct direction.

With that said, I was wondering if there is a plugin available for Cacti (or something that is just built in, but I did not see it) that is capable of doing the following:

(1) Generating daily/weekly/monthly reports and emailing them to a set of recipients.
(2) Sending out email/text message alerts whenever a server is down.
(3) Sending out email/text message alerts whenever a specific service is not running.

Reportit and monitor are both excellent plugins that allow web-based visualizations of (1) and (2), but email would be ideal, since my boss would like to have them automatically sent to him. I have not seen a plugin or other method of monitoring if, say, IIS is running or not, but I am sure it must be possible, and to receive email/text message alerts of this would obviously have tremendous value for us.

Sorry - it would be graphs. I will check out Manage and Reports, thank you.
