Another question about definitions, did I miss something in the
documentation?

I'd like to define a host object:
define host{
        check_command           check-host-alive
        max_check_attempts      1
        check_period            24x7
        contact_groups          testadmins
        notification_interval   1
        notification_period     anytime
        notification_options    d,u,r,f
        name                    unix_hosts
}

and then be able to use it:

define host {
        host_name       myhost
        alias           big box
        address 10.0.0.0
        use             unix_hosts
}

but it complains about the original definition being blank/null.

I know the object definition works right if I do this:

define host{
        host_name               thatbox
        alias                   Bob's Linux Machine
        address                 10.1.0.0
        check_command           check-host-alive
        max_check_attempts      1
        check_period            24x7
        contact_groups          testadmins
        notification_interval   1
        notification_period     anytime
        notification_options    d,u,r,f
        name                    unix_hosts
}

and then use 'unix_hosts" after that.
Simplified, can I define unix_hosts without assigning a machine name to
it?

Thank you all.
