I'm sure this is something other people have wanted to do, but I must not be hitting the right combination of search terms when looking for it.
I have a bunch of servers for which I'm using hostgroups to manage their monitored services. In other words, there's a set of standard service checks for Windows servers, another set of standard checks for Linux servers, and so on. I then have subgroups for the hosts at each site: Windows servers at site 1, Windows servers at site 2, and so on. I'd like to be able to use the site groups to determine who gets notifications for service failures while only defining the services once. Is this possible? I suppose I could make something work by hacking with user macros and some custom notification commands that make their own decisions about whether to send the emails (or whatever), but I'd rather work within Nagios' structure. Is my only option to define a separate set of services for each site's hostgroups? -- ...computer contrarian of the first order... / http://aperiodic.net/phil/ PGP: 026A27F2 print: D200 5BDB FC4B B24A 9248 9F7A 4322 2D22 026A 27F2 --- -- "I was talking aloud to myself.
