That sounds like an excellent recommendation. Here is my host check command: $USER1$/custom/submit_host_check_result.sh $HOSTNAME$ $HOSTSTATEID$ '$HOSTOUTPUT$' I'll need to modify it to be like this: $USER1$/custom/submit_host_check_result.sh $HOSTNAME$ $HOSTSTATEID$ '$HOSTOUTPUT$' '$HOSTSTATETYPE$' And then my NSCA host script would then become: ------------------------------ #!/bin/sh # Arguments and corresponding NAGIOS API variable # $1 = $HOSTNAME$ # $2 = $HOSTSTATEID$ # $3 = $HOSTOUTPUT$ # $4 = $HOSTSTATETYPE$ # # The variables must be piped in as tab delimited variables # with a newline termination if [ "$4" = "HARD" ]; then /usr/bin/printf "%s\t%s\t%s\n" "$1" "$2" "$3" | /usr/local/sbin/send_nsca XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX -c /usr/local/etc/send_nsca.cfg fi # Do nothing for SOFT ------------------------------ Thank you, Jonathan This email message is intended for the use of the person to whom it has been sent, and may contain information that is confidential or legally protected.
