Good. As long as it works for you that's ok, of course.

Well, keep in mind what Marc pointed out - the environment Nagios uses 
to execute scripts is seriously stripped down.

I'm rather sure you won't find the /eventhandlers/launch-bacula-jobs 
existing and executale by nagios.

Use a fully qualified path for the command and have the script be 
owned and executable by the nagios user. The directories leading to it 
should also be r-x for nagios.

So, do a 'ls -l /eventhandlers/launch-bacula-jobs' and see if it's 
usable by Nagios.
