Here is a small test I done to validate that using HOSTNAME in serice definition is OK.
You can adapt this exemple with your real commands.

I use the dummy check to verify if the hostname is well read by the command. This plugin take in first argument the return value, and in second the status message.
I have two hosts, host1 and host2, and a hostgroup containing the two hosts.
I then define the service on the hostgroup.
I use the $HOSTNAME$ macro in service definition to specify parameters.


  ##################################
  # Command definition
  
  # 'check_dummy' command definition
  define command{
          command_name    check_dummy
          command_line    $USER1$/check_dummy $ARG1$ $ARG2$
          }


  ##################################
  # hosts definition definition


  define host{
          use                     linux-server
          host_name               host1
          alias                   Host1
          address                 127.0.0.1
          }
  define host{
          use                     linux-server
          host_name               host2
          alias                   Host2
          address                 127.0.0.1
          }

  ##################################
  # Hostgroup definition

  define hostgroup{
          hostgroup_name  Sybase          ; The name of the hostgroup
          alias           Sybase servers  ; Long name of the group
          members         host1,host2     ; Comma separated list of hosts that belong to this group
          }

  ##################################
  # Service definition

  define service{
          use                             local-service
          hostgroup_name                  Sybase                   ; I specify here the hostgroup
          service_description             Sybase
          check_command                   check_dummy!0!SYBSQL_$HOSTNAME$ ; The $HOSTNAME$ will be replaced by Nagios by the name of the host
          }


In nagios console, I then have :
host1    Sybase       OK: SYBSQL_host1
host2    Sybase       OK: SYBSQL_host2



Best regards,

Florent
