Hi guys,
I'm monitoring a number of Windows servers and so far I am using only the
templates provided.
I would like to split my servers up using host groups so I will have each site
and then the datacentre.
I'm not sure how to go about this... although I have read the documentation I'm
not

In the definitions of each host ( or template ) you have an option of
defining the hostgroup this will group several host in to a group and
will display them as a logical group . A host can be part of many host
groups - there is not restriction on a host belonging to one hostgroup.

Gonna take a stab at this for you. Newer Nagios guy here as well. Here is a
basic start
You use a hostgroup.cfg file to create a group
removing the template is not necessary unless you with to use the
hostgroup name yourself.
if you don't assign hosts to the group it will have not impact ( except
for an empty group in the cgi) .
As for the file name - I use the same naming conventions for my nagios
config - it is easy to
