Trying reading the Nagios documentation on check commands. ;)

The check_command you specify must be the name of a command you
have defined elsewhere using a "define command" stanza.  You can
pass arguments to it from a service definition using

  check_command  check_http!arg1!arg2

In the command check, the arguments are accessed with $ARG1$,
$ARG2$ etcetera.  Just go read the documentation and look at
the existing commands and it should all make sense.
