Since there are few details about what version you are using, I am going
to assume that you are using 1.x config files with a 2.x installation of
nagios. There have been significant changes to the macros with 2.x and
you should review any that you are using.

http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/2_0/macros.html

In this case, I think you're looking for $HOSTOUTPUT$ and either
$LONGDATETIME$ or $SHORTDATETIME$, depending on which you want.
