who is on call?

[Christopher Hunt]

How can i tell who's REALLY on-call when using the rotation feature?

I'm running nagios 3.0.3 and appreciating the timeperiod.cfg rotation 
feature.   I have 3 techs on call and we rotate weekly.  All 3 techs are 
part on the on-call contact-group.  So part of my timeperiods.cfg looks 
like this:

define timeperiod{
         timeperiod_name         bob-oncall
         alias                   Bob Is On-Call
         2008-06-27 / 21 00:00-07:30,17:30-24:00 ; Friday - every 21 days
         2008-06-28 / 21 00:00-24:00             ; Saturday
         2008-06-29 / 21 00:00-24:00             ; Sunday
         2008-06-30 / 21 00:00-07:30,17:30-24:00 ; Monday
         2008-07-01 / 21 00:00-07:30,17:30-24:00 ; Tuesday
         2008-07-02 / 21 00:00-07:30,17:30-24:00 ; Wednesday
         2008-07-03 / 21 00:00-07:30,17:30-24:00 ; Thursday
         }

define timeperiod{
         timeperiod_name         doug-oncall
         alias                   Doug Is On-call
         2008-07-04 / 21 00:00-07:30,17:30-24:00 ; Friday - every 21 days
         2008-07-05 / 21 00:00-24:00             ; Saturday
         2008-07-06 / 21 00:00-24:00             ; Sunday
         2008-07-07 / 21 00:00-07:30,17:30-24:00 ; Monday
         2008-07-08 / 21 00:00-07:30,17:30-24:00 ; Tuesday
         2008-07-09 / 21 00:00-07:30,17:30-24:00 ; Wednesday
         2008-07-10 / 21 00:00-07:30,17:30-24:00 ; Thursday
         }

define timeperiod{
         alias                   McKenzie Is On-call
         timeperiod_name         mckenzie-oncall
         2008-07-11 / 21 00:00-07:30,17:30-24:00 ; Friday - every 21 days
         2008-07-12 / 21 00:00-24:00             ; Saturday
         2008-07-13 / 21 00:00-24:00             ; Sunday
         2008-07-14 / 21 00:00-07:30,17:30-24:00 ; Monday
         2008-07-15 / 21 00:00-07:30,17:30-24:00 ; Tuesday
         2008-07-16 / 21 00:00-07:30,17:30-24:00 ; Wednesday
         2008-07-17 / 21 00:00-07:30,17:30-24:00 ; Thursday
         }

I know, according to my paper calendar, who should theoretically be on 
call but as the dates in the config get farther in the past it gets 
harder to see who might be on call on a given day.  Is there any way, 
either through bash script, forced page or some other method, to get 
nagios to tell me which contact it would use?

Thanks
-Chris
