host name problem

[Brian Smith]

Hello all, does anyone know why the following problem occurs:

I have some hosts having duplicate name issues when adding the
serviceextinfo information for those hosts.
Host 1 is called earth, host 2 is called earthquake. 
Here's the hosts.cfg definition:

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
define host{
        name                            generic-host
        notifications_enabled           1
        event_handler_enabled           1
        flap_detection_enabled          1
        failure_prediction_enabled      1
        process_perf_data               1
        retain_status_information       1
        retain_nonstatus_information    0
        register                        0
        }


define host{
        use                     generic-host            ; Name of host
template to use
        host_name               earth
        alias                   earth
        address                 127.0.0.1
        check_command           check-host-alive
        max_check_attempts      10
        notification_interval   120
        notification_period     24x7
        notification_options    d,r
        contact_groups          admins
        }

define host{
        use                     generic-host            ; Name of host
template to use
        host_name               earthquake
        alias                   earthquake
        address                 127.0.0.1
        check_command           check-host-alive
        max_check_attempts      10
        notification_interval   120
        notification_period     24x7
        notification_options    d,r
        contact_groups          admins
        }
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

And here is the services.cfg

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
define service{
        name                            generic-service
        active_checks_enabled           1
        passive_checks_enabled          1
        parallelize_check               1
        obsess_over_service             1
        check_freshness                 0
        notifications_enabled           1
        event_handler_enabled           1
        flap_detection_enabled          1
        failure_prediction_enabled      1
        process_perf_data               1
        retain_status_information       1
        retain_nonstatus_information    0
        register                        0
        }

define service{
        use                             generic-service         ; Name
of service template to use
        host_name                  earth,earthquake
        service_description             PING
        is_volatile                     0
        check_period                    24x7
        max_check_attempts              2
        normal_check_interval           5
        retry_check_interval            1
        contact_groups                  admins
        notification_options            w,u,c,r
        notification_interval           60
        notification_period             24x7
        check_command                   check_ping!100.0,20%!500.0,60%
        }
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Everything works great now, until i add some serviceextinfo:
serviceextinfo.cfg:

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
define serviceextinfo{
        host_name               earthquake
        icon_image               dot.png' border="0"></a><A
TARGET="_blank" HREF="graphs.cgi?host=earthquake&service=PING"><img
src='/nagios/cgi-bin/rrd2-system.cgi?host=earthquake&service=PING&start=-5400&title=Actual&width=20&height=20&type=AVERAGE&only-graph=true'
        service_description     PING
        notes_url               https://wiki/$HOSTNAME$-$SERVICEDESC$
}

define serviceextinfo{
        host_name               earth
        icon_image               dot.png' border="0"></a><A
TARGET="_blank" HREF="graphs.cgi?host=earth&service=PING"><img
src='/nagios/cgi-bin/rrd2-system.cgi?host=earth&service=PING&start=-5400&title=Actual&width=20&height=20&type=AVERAGE&only-graph=true'
        service_description     PING
        notes_url               https://wiki/$HOSTNAME$-$SERVICEDESC$
}
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ok, now when I run ../bin/nagios -v ./nagios.cfg I get the error:

root at nagios:/opt/nagios/etc# ../bin/nagios -v ./nagios.cfg

Reading configuration data...

Error: Could not add duplicate serviceextinfo entry for service 'PING'
on host 'earthquake'.
Error: Could not allocate memory for serviceextinfo list to add extended
info for service 'PING' on host 'earthquake'.
Error: Could not register extended service information (config file
'/opt/nagios/etc/checkcommands.cfg', starting on line 135111232)

Any suggestions on getting the serviceextinfo.cfg entries working for
these 2 hosts?  It works if I only have one of the hosts in the cfg file?
Thanks!

Brian Smith
