I would like to define it in the "define host" section as below, and have it
expanded in the "define service" section right below it (in the same file).
It seems inefficient to be required to define an explicit hostname in each
section of an object definition.
define host{
host_name mymachine
hostgroups MyGroup
alias mymachine
address 10.1.2.100
max_check_attempts 5
contact_groups admins
check_command check-host-alive
}
define service{
use generic-service
host_name %HOSTNAME%
^^^^^^^^ should expand to mymachine
service_description PING
check_command check_ping!100.0,20%!500.0,60%
}
