For the interim we’ve had to modify our NAGIOS source and play around with this line: --- asprintf(&temp_buffer,"HOST ALERT: %s;$HOSTSTATE$;$HOSTSTATETYPE$;$HOSTATTEMPT$;%s\n",hst->name,(hst->plugin_output==NULL)?"":hst->plugin_output); --- Although, we’d really like to avoid this and have it be a configuration option in the standard nagios.cfg ... I hereby wish this to the wish-list ;-) Regards, Traiano <hr align="CENTER" size="3" width="95%"> From: Traiano Welcome <<a href="traiano.welcome@mtnbusiness.co.za">traiano.welcome@mtnbusiness.co.za</a>> Reply-To: Nagios Users List <<a href="nagios-users@lists.sourceforge.net">nagios-users@lists.sourceforge.net</a>> Date: Wed, 17 Mar 2010 12:29:05 +0200 To: Nagios Users List <<a href="nagios-users@lists.sourceforge.net">nagios-users@lists.sourceforge.net</a>> Subject: [Nagios-users] NAGIOS 3: Adjusting fields which appear in the default nagios log Hi All I’m sending nagios logs to a 3rd party application (Netcool) for processing, and there is a requirement for the IP address of the monitored device to appear in the ALERT and NOTIFY log lines for host and service statuses. Where would I adjust which fields appear in the nagios log lines? A typical host ALERT log line on my installation looks like this: --- Mar 17 11:51:42 nagserver nagios: HOST ALERT: <hostname-x>;UP;SOFT;2;PING OK - Packet loss = 0%, RTA = 260.81 ms --- I’d like an extra field to appear after <hostname-x> indicating the IP of the host. If possible, I’d even like to insert $PARENT for the host as a field somewhere here.
