I dont understand, service_description is present in services.cfg. I have try some things i have found on the net but nothing works..

Thanks for your help

Is this a host notification, or service notification? I usually see this behavior when a service notification command is set to a host, resulting the service specific macros represented as "$".

Humm interesting, yeah it's a service notification, i ll check if it's well attributed to à service and not to the host tomorrow and i will not miss to say it to you. Thanks for answer.

Hello,

It was simply as that^^

Thanks again for the help.
