1 - You'll probably want to '$SERVICEOUTPUT$' for predictability
2 - Is this command being used as a service_notification_command for a
contact or as an event_handler? $NOTIFICATIONTYPE$ isn't valid for
event_handlers -- http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/3_0/macrolist.html.

A notification to nagios is just running a script. It doesn't matter,
know, or care what that script actually does. It could send an e-mail,
send a trap, log to a file, and/or ring alarm bells in an underground
fortress to send out battalions of techs. In all cases, any macro that
is valid for notifications can be passed.

I personally suspect that this isn't a notification but an
event_handler.

The macros list above is your best source for knowing when/where
specific macros can be used.
