This way:

cat test.csv
Code:
"hello","byebye"
"other","data"
"hello2","byebye2"
"hello3","byebye3"
"other","data"

cat nagios.cfg
Code:
define host{
        use                          generic-host
        host_name                    hello
        alias                        hello.hello
        address                      127.0.0.1
        contact_groups               mymail
        parents                      hello3
}

cat service.cfg
Code:
define service{
        use                                  generic-service
        service_description             TCP_80
        host_name                        hello,hello2,hello3,nochangematch
        contact_groups                  
        check_command                 
}

Everything what matches from test.csv (column1) with nagios.cfg or services.cfg must be replaced from test.csv column2 data but as you see in services.cfg can be host_name with many hosts. Those much be
matched as well and be replaced and cases with hello.nomatch must
be matched to byebye.nomatch

Last code what you provided still printed only change in parents field.
For you to be sure, i attached my files. Had rename them to .txt
files.

nawk -f fran2.awk test.csv nagios.cfg

Code:
define host{
use generic-host
host_name hello
alias hello.hello
address 127.0.0.1
contact_groups mymail
parents byebye3
}

Think we are we close. I just have to explain better.

Thanks again

mz.cfg

mz.cfg(1)						      General Commands Manual							 mz.cfg(1)

NAME

       mz - a fast versatile packet generator

SYNOPSIS

       /etc/mausezahn/mz.cfg

DESCRIPTION

       Mausezahn  is  a free fast traffic generator written in C which allows you to send nearly every possible and impossible packet. Mausezahn's
       MOPS subsystem (Mausezahn's Own Packet System) supports an interactive mode with a Cisco-style command line interface (CLI).  In  order	to
       activate this interactive mode, execute Mausezahn using the -x argument, optionally followed by an arbitrary TCP port number, such as

       # mz -x 99

       in which case you can connect to Mausezahn via

       $ telnet 127.0.0.1 99

       If  no port number is specified, Mausezahn uses the default port number 25542 (which is the date of towel day followed by the answer to the
       universe and everything; however, you don't need to understand this in order to continue).

       Login credentials as well as other MOPS-related parameters can  be  specified  in  the  Mausezahn  configuration  file  mz.cfg  located	in
       etc/mausezahn. Currently, user-specific configuration files are not supported.

       If no configuration file is present Mausezahn assumes the following default login credentials:

	      username: mz
	      password: mz
	      enable password: mops

       Currently only login credentials can be configured within the configuration file. Here is an example content of /etc/mausezahn/mz.cfg:

	      user = herbert
	      password = moTTe
	      enable = T0p5ecreT

       Additional configuration options will be officially supported with the next releases.
