Hello, @bashar.abed. In Nagios web interface go to the Configure menu, then click on Core Configurations Manager, click on the commands menu in the left column. Search for the following commands: xi_host_event_handler and xi_service_event_handler. Add the following at the end of each command:

--contactgroupname=$CONTACTGROUPNAME$

In the notification message template on your screenshot underneath the Info line insert the follwoing line:

Contactgroup: %contactgroupname%

Hi,

many thanks for your response i will check it and feedback but we need a single contact not group contact as shown graph

Thanks

Hi,

i added the command below and there is no effect on Nagios System what is a problem

i think in this commands right or not

xi_host_notification_handler

i applied the command the same no effect

@bashar.abed, Looks like you haven't added the macro to the actual message: If you just want to include the contact's name instead of the contactgrpoups name change:

--contactgroupname=$CONTACTGROUPNAME$

to

--contactname=$CONTACTNAME$

And

Contactgroup: %contactgroupname%

to

Contact: %contactname%

Hi,

many thanks

@bashar.abed, You're welcome. Are we good to close this thread as resolved?
