Re: [Nagios-users] hostgroups in servicegroup definition

[Lori A. <la...@cl...>]

This doesn't work.

I get the error:

Error: Could not find a service matching host name '<hostgroup>' and
description '<service>'.

It appears to only want hosts.

I don't use hostgroups in this way but I'm pretty sure it is possible=20

because I added this to my servicegroup-generator.py (find it on=20

nagiosexchange.org) at the request of another guy who emailed me.

Basically, the "hostgroup, service" bit goes on the Members line the=20

same way the "host, service" bit does. You're welcome to give the=20

servicegroup-generator a try as well since it will generate a file full=20

of servicegroups following the names of the services you have defined in


services.cfg or equivalent. I use it to not bother writing my=20

servicegroup file by hand...

Let me know how you get on...

Hope that helps.
