It seems that the documentation (http://docs.icinga.org/latest/en/objecttricks.html) doesn't indicate that excluding objects is valid for hostgroups.

Try to define a service similar to your groupC:

define service{
     use local-service
     service_description your_service
     hostgroups groupA,!groupB
     ....
}

create objects.precache and check if "your_service" is defined for the hosts in the intended hostgroups.

I changed my config slightly to really show what I'm trying to do by putting foo2 in groupA.

define hostgroup {

        hostgroup_name  groupA

        }

define hostgroup {

        hostgroup_name  groupB

        }

define host {

        use             generic-host

        host_name       foo

        address         127.0.0.1

        hostgroups      groupA

        }

define host {

        use             generic-host

        host_name       foo2

        address         127.0.0.1

        hostgroups      groupB,groupA

        }

define hostgroup {

        hostgroup_name  groupC

        hostgroup_members       groupA,!groupB

        }

So the end result that I wanted would be that groupC has the members: foo.

My objects.precache file does not show that.

define hostgroup {

        hostgroup_name  groupA

        members foo,foo2

        }

define hostgroup {

        hostgroup_name  groupB

        members foo2

        }

define hostgroup {

        hostgroup_name  groupC

        members foo,foo2

        }

So no, the hostgroup does not contain the members that I expect.
