event_handlers macro contactemail

[Carlos de Sousa]

Hi!

I am in real need for having access to the $CONTACTx$ macros in my
eventhandlers. I am running Nagios V2.

Would I get it to work if I did the following?


define command {
     command_name                   send_snmptrap_host
     command_line                   /usr/bin/perl 
$USER1$/eventhandlers/send_nagiostrap $ARG1$ $ARG2$

}

define host {
      name                           NOC-MAIN

      event_handler_enabled          1  ; Host event handler is enabled 


      register                       0  ; DONT REGISTER THIS DEFINITION

      notifications_enabled          0
      event_handler 
send_snmptrap_host!$CONTACTEMAIL$!$CONTACTPAGER$
      contact_groups                 NOC
}

define host {
  use               NOC-MAIN
  host_name         host1
  alias             my host1
  address           xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
  check_command     check-host-alive
}

Any other suggestion?

would it work if I put the event_handler keyword in the host
definition for the host instead of in a template?

I have seen the mailing list archives, and there are other
people that have asked for the same thing, but they where
running Nagios V1 I think, so I wonder if this is duable
for Nagios V2.

Really greatfull for a solution, and no, I am not going to use the
CONTACTEMAIL information to send out notifications from my event handler.

Regards
Carlos
