Hi Paul, the servicegroup is set via Monit configuration only (not managed by M/Monit), using the “group <name>” option: http://mmonit.com/monit/documentation/monit.html#SERVICE-GROUPS.
Per-host service uptime is accessible in the Reports -> Uptime page when you click on the host entry in the table.
