you should make sure that macros are grabbed / resolved correctly. the current core behaviour on unknown macros is to leave them as is on the output. that of course is rather irritating, and will cause scripts and notifications to actually interpret those values. we will change that behaviour in 1.8 and only log a warning on unknown macros, cleaning them from the output. https://dev.icinga.org/issues/2291 in your case, you should put a check onto your submitted arguments, validating that they are not macros, until 1.8 is out. other than that, you are probably calling that script in the wrong way - i guess, this script is also called when you actually send host check results, where the service macros do not fit. kind regards, michael > Steven Schwartz > > Gracenote, Inc. > > > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > Live Security Virtual Conference > Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and > threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.
