timestamp in macro and log files

[Vincent Reydet]

Hi,

I'm currently trying to get the timestamp of a service check with the  
event handler.

But I fail to get the same timestamp as the one on the nagios log file.

if I have this handler:

define command{
         command_name event-test
         command_line /bin/echo $LASTSERVICECHECK$  
$LASTSERVICESTATECHANGE$ $SERVICEEXECUTIONTIME$ >> /tmp/nagios.test
}

with this result on my tmp file:

chaos:/etc/nagios2# tail -f /tmp/nagios.test
1240264409 1240264409 0.014
1240264469 1240264409 0.014

and this on the nagios log file:
[1240264411] SERVICE ALERT: localhost;http test;CRITICAL;SOFT; 
1;CRITICAL - string not found
[1240264411] SERVICE EVENT HANDLER: localhost;http test;CRITICAL;SOFT; 
1;event-test
[1240264471] SERVICE ALERT: localhost;http test;CRITICAL;HARD; 
2;CRITICAL - string not found
[1240264471] SERVICE EVENT HANDLER: localhost;http test;CRITICAL;HARD; 
2;event-test

there are 2 seconds between them.

I want to put the data on a database and report the same date as the  
nagios web interface.

Do you know where I can have the same timestamp as the log file ?
Why there are two differents values ?

I'm using nagios 2.6 (debian)
