Check your configuration file(s) to ensure that they contain valid
directives and data defintions. If you are upgrading from a previous
version of Nagios, you should be aware that some variables/definitions
may have been removed or modified in this version. Make sure to read
the HTML documentation regarding the config files, as well as the
'Whats New' section to find out what has changed.

24 define host{
25 use linux-server ; Name of host template to use
26 ; This host definition will inherit all variables that are defined
27 ; in (or inherited by) the linux-server host template definition.
28 host_name hostname
29 alias hostname
30 address 10.XX.XX.XXX
31 }
32

It appears you have two host definitions for 'dclnxspl007a' - I would run a grep -R 'dclnxspl007a' /usr/local/nagios/etc/ and see if that points to where the other place it's defined.

Please create your own thread for this problem with more information on the service definitions.

Just checking in since we have not heard from you in a while. Did @rkennedy's post clear things up or has the issue otherwise been resolved?
