I am considering to use Zenoss Core 2.1 to run some Nagios plugins.
My service check definitions in the Nagios configuration files make
use of Nagios' on-demand macros (see http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/2_0/macros.html
for details; I am mainly interested in what is described as "Host
Macros" and "Service Macros" on that page).
My question: Does Zenoss Core support Nagios on-demand macros such
as "$SERVICEMACRO:host_name:service_description$" as described on
the above link?
Zenoss doesn't support the macros or on-demand macros. However, it
replaces with another variable substitution mechanism, TALES. These
are the things like ${dev/manageIp} that you see. Zenoss doesn't have
service descriptions like Nagios does, but if you could say what
information you're interested in getting to the plugin we could
probably provide the appropriate TALES expression for it.
