All, I am trying to create my service name dynamically. Can someone tell me a clever way to do. What I am tyring to achive is the following. I have a servicename "outlet1outputcurrent". Outlet1 is connected to host1. I can get the hostname for host1 by doing a snmp query. Somehow I want to generate the servicename to say "host1outputcurrent". Is it possible to do this using check_snmp plugin. Please advise on this. Thanks -- Cordially, Shadhin Rahman
