Missing Macro: $SERVICECONTACTGROUPS$

[Caylan Van Larson]

Here's the full hack if anyone is interested.


Service Notification
         command_line    $USER3$/scripts/send-email.sh  
"$NOTIFICATIONTYPE$" "$SERVICEDESC$" "$HOSTALIAS$" "$HOSTADDRESS$"  
"$SERVICESTATE$" "$LONGDATETIME$" "$SERVICEOUTPUT$$LONGSERVICEOUTPUT$"  
"$CONTACTGROUPNAME$" "$CONTACTEMAIL$"

Host Notification
         command_line    $USER2$/scripts/send-email.sh  
"$NOTIFICATIONTYPE$" "" "$HOSTALIAS$" "$HOSTADDRESS$" "$HOSTSTATE$"  
"$LONGDATETIME$" "$HOSTOUTPUT$$LONGHOSTOUTPUT$" "$CONTACTGROUPNAME$"  
"$CONTACTEMAIL$"


send-email.sh

#!/bin/bash

# Author: Caylan Larson
# Date: 3/20/08
# Note: This script is called by ~nagios/etc/commands.cfg to send out
#       email notifications for both services and hosts.

NOTIFICATIONTYPE=$1
SERVICEDESC=$2          # Empty if host notification
HOSTALIAS=$3
HOSTADDRESS=$4
STATE=$5
LONGDATETIME=$6
PLUGINOUTPUT=$7
CONTACTGROUPNAME=$8
CONTACTEMAIL=$9

if [ -z $SERVICEDESC ]; then
   # Send out host notification
   EMAIL_SUBJECT="Host $STATE alert for $HOSTADDRESS!"
   GREP_1=$HOSTADDRESS
   GREP_2='define host {'
else
   # Send out service notification
   EMAIL_SUBJECT="$STATE $NOTIFICATIONTYPE alert   $HOSTADDRESS/ 
$SERVICEDESC"
   SERVICE_LINE="Service: $SERVICEDESC"
   GREP_1=$SERVICEDESC
   GREP_2=$HOSTADDRESS
fi

# To make up for an absent macro (below) I coded this hack.  Caylan  
Larson
#   $SERVICECONTACTGROUPS$ - "A comma separated list of the short  
names taken from the contact_groups directive of the service  
definition."
SERVICECONTACTGROUPS=$( grep "$GREP_1" ~nagios/var/objects.cache -B 1 - 
A 3 \
   | grep "$GREP_2" -A 5 \
   | grep contact_groups \
   | awk '{print $2}' \
   | sed -r "s/,*$CONTACTGROUPNAME//" \
   | sed -r 's/^,|,$//' )
   # The 2nd to the last sed removes the current contact group
if [ -z "$SERVICECONTACTGROUPS" ]; then
   SERVICECONTACTGROUPS="NA (Only $CONTACTGROUPNAME)"
fi

# Send Email
cat <<EOF | mail -s "$EMAIL_SUBJECT" $CONTACTEMAIL
