No. At the the time there was no tsunami warning center in the Indian Ocean. They received no warning. The first indication anyone in Indonesia got was the ocean receding before the tsunami struck, but most people did not know that this was a sign of a tsunami.
Yes. Most tsunamis are in the ocean. It is rare to see them in lakes.
The 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami, the world's deadliest, caused an estimated 230,000-280,000 deaths across 14 countries.
See the Related Link for facts about the Indian Ocean.
No. Areas hit by a tsunami usually see the ocean recede a few minutes beforehand.
If you feel an earthquake,or if you see the ocean receding unusally rapidly.
In the middle of the ocean a tsunami is a few inches to a few feet high and many miles long and takes minutes to pass. Such a gradual change would not be noticeable.

It Is horrible. You might see furniture and cars and boats in the ocean. Water will be surrounding you. The building probably collapsed.
The Atlantic and Indian Oceans surround South Africa. But, they aren't seas, they're oceans!
The tsunami on 26 December 2004, hit different locations at different times. The earthquake which caused the tsunami, hit at one minute before 8:00am. The gigantic wave quickly built up and spread out, extending to thirteen countries. The wave, travelling at up to 800 kilometres per hour, hit the northern regions of the Indonesian island of Sumatra within fifteen minutes; while Sri Lanka, Thailand and the east coast of India were hit between 90 minutes and two hours later. Somalia was struck about seven hours later. Other countries hit included Bangladesh, Malaysia, the Maldives, the Seychelles and the Indian-owned Andaman and Nicobar Islands. Some 8,500 km away, the coastal village of Struisbaai in South Africa, a 1.5 m "high tide" surged onshore about 16 hours after the quake. See related link below.
