hope below perl can help a little.

Just put them in 8 different array.

Code:
#!/usr/bin/perl
$n=0;
open FH,"<a.txt";
while(<FH>){
	next if /(\{|#)/;
  $n++ if /\}/;
	my @tmp=split(/  */,$_,3);
	$tmp[2]=~s/;.*//;
	$user[$n]=$tmp[2] if $tmp[1] eq "use";
	$host_name[$n]=$tmp[2] if $tmp[1] eq "host_name";
	$alias[$n]=$tmp[2] if $tmp[1] eq "alias";
	$address[$n]=$tmp[2] if $tmp[1] eq "address";
	$check_command[$n]=$tmp[2] if $tmp[1] eq "check_command";
	$contact_groups[$n]=$tmp[2] if $tmp[1] eq "contact_groups";
	$notification_interval[$n]=$tmp[2] if $tmp[1] eq "notification_interval";
	$notification_period[$n]=$tmp[2] if $tmp[1] eq "notification_period";
	$notification_options[$n]=$tmp[2] if $tmp[1] eq "notification_options";
