Just saw this.   Interesting that you don't see the issue.  Is there any chance 
of a global config that allows/disallows this?  To me, it's odd how the error 
says it doesn't know of the group, '!hostgroupC', as if the '!' is part of the 
hostgroup name.

Thanks,

It’s not a template and is definitely not empty.

It’s pretty easy.  Create two hostgroups with hosts in them.  Then create a 
third hostgroup with hostgroup members where one of them is included, and the 
other excluded.
Notice that the error says “could not find group ‘!hostgroupC’, as if it 
doesn’t know how to handle exclusions in the hostgroup_members line.

Is it true that I cannot do a hostgroup exclusion while attempting nested 
hostgroups?
define hostgroup {
                hostgroup_name foo
                hostgroup_members hostgroupA,hostgroupB,!hostgroupC
                }

Error: Could not find member group '!hostgroupC' specified in hostgroup

Any chance that this has been corrected in a newer version.  I’m aware that 
1.6.0 is out.

I cannot confirm your problem so please verify that hostgroupC exists (and is 
not a template or maybe an empty hostgroup).

I did create such a setup using Icinga 1.4.0 before writing the other posting 
;-).

Attached a (modified) localhost.cfg containing the following definitions:

define hostgroup{
    hostgroup_name hg1
    members localhost1
}
define hostgroup{
    hostgroup_name hg2
    members localhost2
}
define hostgroup{
    hostgroup_name hg3
    hostgroup_members hg1,!hg2
}

>From what I get that is similar to what you described. Attached an 
>objects.precache containing the following lines:

define hostgroup {
    hostgroup_name    hg1
    members    localhost1
    }

define hostgroup {
    hostgroup_name    hg2
    members    localhost2
    }

define hostgroup {
    hostgroup_name    hg3
    members    localhost1
    }

.../bin/icinga -vp complains about some missing services but there are no 
errors.
