Ok - I solved it. It was an Upper/Lower case thing. my variable IN USE needed
to be $_SERVICENAVOLUME$ instead of $_SERVICEnavolume$ because it automatically
converts the variable name to uppercase.

Subject: [Nagios-users] Expanding Custom Variables
I am trying to monitor multiple volumes on a NetApp system. The format of the
command requires a hostname:volumename format. I want to reduce my
commands/service definitions to a minimum. My initial thought was to have a
generic service definition, that gets more specific with a sub definition.
When the command is run, it seems like it is not passing the custom variable,
but rather leaving a single $ behind where the variable ought to be.
Any ideas on
1) fixing my syntax?
2) Doing this somehow easier?
NAF UNKNOWN - No Snapmirror with source or destination "myhostname:$" found!
define service{
name NA_SnapMirror
check_command netapp_snapmirror
use GenericService_Core
normal_check_interval 1000
max_check_attempts 300
register 0
contact_groups CoreServers
}
define service {
use NA_SnapMirror
_navolume myvolumename
service_description SnapMirror_groups
hosts myhostname
}
define command{
command_name netapp_snapmirror
command_line $USER1$/check_naf.py -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -C $USER8$
snapmirror,$HOSTNAME$:$_SERVICEnavolume$,$USER25$
}
