My host_notification_commands is notify-by-email. Here is the snippet of notify-by-email: define command{ command_name notify-by-email command_line /usr/bin/printf "%b" "***** Nagios *****\n\nNotification Type: $NOTIFICATIONTYPE$\n\nService: $SERVICEDESC$\nHost: $HO STALIAS$\nAddress: $HOSTADDRESS$\nState: $SERVICESTATE$\n\nDate/Time: $LONGDATETIME$\n\nAdditional Info:\n\n$SERVICEOUTPUT$" | /bin/mail -s "** $NOTIFICATIONTYPE$ alert - $HOSTALIAS$/$SERVICEDESC$ is $SERVICESTATE$ **" $CONTACTEMAIL$ } If macros are not enabled, why $HOSTALIAS$ and $HOSTADDRESS$ has a value? Do you think the problem is in the services.cfg only because most of the missing variables is related to services? I'm using Nagios 2.10 <div style="font-family: times new roman,new york,times,serif; font-size: 12pt;">----- Original Message ---- From: Marc Powell <marc@ena.com> To: Nagios Users Mailinglist <nagios-users@lists.sourceforge.net> Sent: Monday, March 10, 2008 10:27:44 AM Subject: Re: [Nagios-users] missing info in notifications On Mar 9, 2008, at 9:12 PM, Nelson Serafica wrote: > I have enabled notification via email.

Look at that command{} definitions for those commands. Verify that you are using $MACROS$ appropriate for your version of nagios. You almost certainly are not. These links are for 2.x, the version you should probably be using... -- <a href="http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/2_0/xodtemplate.html#contact" target="_blank">http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/2_0/xodtemplate.html#contact</a> <a href="http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/2_0/xodtemplate.html#command" target="_blank">http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/2_0/xodtemplate.html#command</a> <a href="http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/2_0/macros.html" target="_blank">http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/2_0/macros.html</a> -- Marc ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
