More than one command defined

[Deborah Martin]

Hi, 

I have a need to run two different commands when processing the performance
data from Nagios (3.2.2) 

I want the first  command to run the process-perfdata.pl script from
pnp4nagios and the second command to log various things to a different log
file. 

The reason is that we've only just had a requirement to process performance
data for pnp4nagios graphing. But historically we've created our own
"performance data" log 
which is then used within a database to produce SLA reports developed
in-house (no graphing just numbers produced for the SLA reports) 

If I do the following I don't get an errors when I run nagios -v nagios.cfg
... :- 

define command {
        command_name process-service-perfdata-file
        command_line <first command> - process performance data for
pnp4nagios
        command_line <second command> - log different data to a different
file 
        }

I'd like to avoid creating a script with both commands in if I can help it
as it's extremely useful to keep it simple and visible in the
misccommands.cfg file. 

Perhaps there is some other way I can do this or is a script with both
commands really the only way ? 

Any help / pointers would be really appreciated. If I'm being dense about
this and the answer is staring right at me feel free to say so! 

Thanks, 
Deborah
