Missing Macro: $SERVICECONTACTGROUPS$

[Caylan Van Larson]

Our contact group names are modeled after exchange distribution  
lists.  Sometimes notifications are sent to multiple lists (service  
desk, dev team, oracle team).  I need the notification emails to  
include the short names of the other contact groups (hence  
distribution list names) configured for the service.  I understand  
that this is not a guarantee that a notification will be sent to all  
groups (since they could have different notification options).

To my surprise Nagios 3 does not include this macro.

$SERVICECONTACTGROUPS$ - "A comma separated list of the short names  
taken from the contact_groups directive of the service definition."

In the meantime I can use this ugly hack inside a script to get the  
list of contact-groups fit for emailing:

	grep "$SERVICEDESC" ~nagios/var/objects.cache -B 1 -A 3 | grep  
$HOSTADDRESS -A 5 | grep contact_groups | awk '{print $2}'

Thoughts?
