This is a regular email template. I've changed the email template as you mentioned and still same issue. Just showing days and no mins. If the Date/Time is showing all details as expected, how come Host/service duration is missing..?

Could you post the current template as you have it now please? Much easier to take a look at what it absolutely is, rather than what we think it might be.

It looks like you have the assignment of "$HOSTDURATOIN$" correctly quoted. Tail the nagios.log after sending one of these notifications. There possibly may be some information in the log about how this command is handling the $HOSTDURATION$ macro.

I could not find anything suspicious in the log. Log flow below for a host :
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I just tested this and %hostduration% is working just fine:

Code: Select all

Duration: 10d 3h 2m 42s
But I noticed you are using the script: /usr/bin/php /usr/local/nagiosxi/scripts/handle_nagioscore_notification.php
Is there a reason why you are using this script? The commands (and subsequent scripts) that should be edited for XI users are:

Code: Select all

xi_host_notification_handler
xi_service_notification_handler

We are using xi_host_notification_handler & xi_service_notification_handler only. See below :
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
define command {
command_name xi_host_notification_handler
command_line /usr/bin/php /usr/local/nagiosxi/scripts/handle_nagioscore_notification.php --notification-type=host --contact="$CONTACTNAME$" --contactemail="$CONTACTEMAIL$" --type=$NOTIFICATIONTYPE$ --escalated="$NOTIFICATIONISESCALATED$" --author="$NOTIFICATIONAUTHOR$" --comments="$NOTIFICATIONCOMMENT$" --host="$HOSTNAME$" --hostaddress="$HOSTADDRESS$" --hostalias="$HOSTALIAS$" --hostdisplayname="$HOSTDISPLAYNAME$" --hoststate=$HOSTSTATE$ --hoststateid=$HOSTSTATEID$ --lasthoststate=$LASTHOSTSTATE$ --lasthoststateid=$LASTHOSTSTATEID$ --hoststatetype=$HOSTSTATETYPE$ --currentattempt=$HOSTATTEMPT$ --maxattempts=$MAXHOSTATTEMPTS$ --hosteventid=$HOSTEVENTID$ --hostproblemid=$HOSTPROBLEMID$ --hostoutput="$HOSTOUTPUT$" --longhostoutput="$LONGHOSTOUTPUT$" --datetime="$LONGDATETIME$" --hostduration=$HOSTDURATION$ --hostgroups=$HOSTGROUPNAMES$ --recipients=$NOTIFICATIONRECIPIENTS$
}

define command {
command_name xi_service_notification_handler
command_line /usr/bin/php /usr/local/nagiosxi/scripts/handle_nagioscore_notification.php --notification-type=service --contact="$CONTACTNAME$" --contactemail="$CONTACTEMAIL$" --type=$NOTIFICATIONTYPE$ --escalated="$NOTIFICATIONISESCALATED$" --author="$NOTIFICATIONAUTHOR$" --comments="$NOTIFICATIONCOMMENT$" --host="$HOSTNAME$" --hostaddress="$HOSTADDRESS$" --hostalias="$HOSTALIAS$" --hostdisplayname="$HOSTDISPLAYNAME$" --service="$SERVICEDESC$" --hoststate=$HOSTSTATE$ --hoststateid=$HOSTSTATEID$ --servicestate=$SERVICESTATE$ --servicestateid=$SERVICESTATEID$ --lastservicestate=$LASTSERVICESTATE$ --lastservicestateid=$LASTSERVICESTATEID$ --servicestatetype=$SERVICESTATETYPE$ --currentattempt=$SERVICEATTEMPT$ --maxattempts=$MAXSERVICEATTEMPTS$ --serviceeventid=$SERVICEEVENTID$ --serviceproblemid=$SERVICEPROBLEMID$ --serviceoutput="$SERVICEOUTPUT$" --longserviceoutput="$LONGSERVICEOUTPUT$" --datetime="$LONGDATETIME$" --hostgroups=$HOSTGROUPNAMES$ --recipients=$NOTIFICATIONRECIPIENTS$ --serviceduration=$SERVICEDURATION$
}
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

And all contacts are using the same one :

service_notification_commands xi_service_notification_handler
host_notification_commands xi_host_notification_handler
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I don't see anything wrong with your commands. I've set up %hostduration% in exactly the same way but it's working for me. Can you post the nagios.cfg file, so that we can take a look at it?

Here is the problem, change the handlers to quote the $HOSTDURATION$ and $SERVICEDURATION$

e.g.

Code: Select all

define command {
       command_name                             xi_host_notification_handler
       command_line                             /usr/bin/php /usr/local/nagiosxi/scripts/handle_nagioscore_notification.php --notification-type=host --contact="$CONTACTNAME$" --contactemail="$CONTACTEMAIL$" --type=$NOTIFICATIONTYPE$ --escalated="$NOTIFICATIONISESCALATED$" --author="$NOTIFICATIONAUTHOR$" --comments="$NOTIFICATIONCOMMENT$" --host="$HOSTNAME$" --hostaddress="$HOSTADDRESS$" --hostalias="$HOSTALIAS$" --hostdisplayname="$HOSTDISPLAYNAME$" --hoststate=$HOSTSTATE$ --hoststateid=$HOSTSTATEID$ --lasthoststate=$LASTHOSTSTATE$ --lasthoststateid=$LASTHOSTSTATEID$ --hoststatetype=$HOSTSTATETYPE$ --currentattempt=$HOSTATTEMPT$ --maxattempts=$MAXHOSTATTEMPTS$ --hosteventid=$HOSTEVENTID$ --hostproblemid=$HOSTPROBLEMID$ --hostoutput="$HOSTOUTPUT$" --longhostoutput="$LONGHOSTOUTPUT$" --datetime="$LONGDATETIME$" --hostduration="$HOSTDURATION$" --hostgroups=$HOSTGROUPNAMES$ --recipients=$NOTIFICATIONRECIPIENTS$
}

       command_line                             /usr/bin/php /usr/local/nagiosxi/scripts/handle_nagioscore_notification.php --notification-type=service --contact="$CONTACTNAME$" --contactemail="$CONTACTEMAIL$" --type=$NOTIFICATIONTYPE$ --escalated="$NOTIFICATIONISESCALATED$" --author="$NOTIFICATIONAUTHOR$" --comments="$NOTIFICATIONCOMMENT$" --host="$HOSTNAME$" --hostaddress="$HOSTADDRESS$" --hostalias="$HOSTALIAS$" --hostdisplayname="$HOSTDISPLAYNAME$" --service="$SERVICEDESC$" --hoststate=$HOSTSTATE$ --hoststateid=$HOSTSTATEID$ --servicestate=$SERVICESTATE$ --servicestateid=$SERVICESTATEID$ --lastservicestate=$LASTSERVICESTATE$ --lastservicestateid=$LASTSERVICESTATEID$ --servicestatetype=$SERVICESTATETYPE$ --currentattempt=$SERVICEATTEMPT$ --maxattempts=$MAXSERVICEATTEMPTS$ --serviceeventid=$SERVICEEVENTID$ --serviceproblemid=$SERVICEPROBLEMID$ --serviceoutput="$SERVICEOUTPUT$" --longserviceoutput="$LONGSERVICEOUTPUT$" --datetime="$LONGDATETIME$" --hostgroups=$HOSTGROUPNAMES$ --recipients=$NOTIFICATIONRECIPIENTS$ --serviceduration="$SERVICEDURATION$"
