Nagios Support Forum

Although not dynamic, that feature is available today. You just need to do
a configure, enabling support for either MySQL or PostGreSQL.

Having said that, you might want to take a look at this:

In particular, these lines:

8. DB support for retention data is being dropped
9. DB support for extended information is being dropped

Alternatively, there has been recent discussion regarding using XML to drive
the creating of the config files. Very recently, as in last week. If you
missed that e-mail, I can forward it to you off-list.

Food for thought.
