Yes and no. The code returns NULL for non-existing hostgroups referenced (which should remain an error) and NULL for existing hostgroups without member hosts. It needs to be changed to return an int and pass the data back as an out-argument, and I simply don't have time to do that just now. So yes, it could be considered an error, and no that won't happen in the foreseeable future unless someone else sends me a patch for it. I'd be delighted to apply such a patch if someone did though, and especially if it was configurable from nagios.cfg whether empty hostgroups referenced from services was an error or just a warning, with error enabled by default. The patch must not change the object layouts as defined in include/objects.h. Backwards compatibility is kinda boring to cater to, but it's necessary for projects as large as Nagios. -- Andreas Ericsson andreas.erics...@op5.se OP5 AB www.op5.se Tel: +46 8-230225 Fax: +46 8-230231 Considering the successes of the wars on alcohol, poverty, drugs and terror, I think we should give some serious thought to declaring war on peace. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Nokia and AT&T present the 2010 Calling All Innovators-North America contest Create new apps & games for the Nokia N8 for consumers in U.S. and Canada $10 million total in prizes - $4M cash, 500 devices, nearly $6M in marketing Develop with Nokia Qt SDK, Web Runtime, or Java and Publish to Ovi Store http://p.sf.net/sfu/nokia-dev2dev _______________________________________________ Nagios-users mailing list Nagios-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/nagios-users ::: Please include Nagios version, plugin version (-v) and OS when reporting any issue. ::: Messages without supporting info will risk being sent to /dev/null
