question about hostgroups

[Seth Simmons]

So you have ServerA ServerB and ServerC as part of Hostgroup1.

You have services defined for the Hostgroup, but you want to exclude ServerC from that one service.

In the service command, exclude ServerC by putting a ! in front of it.

 

Example:

 

define service{

          use                                           local-service         

          hostgroup_name                          Hostgroup1

          host_name                                 !ServerC

          service_description                       SSH

          check_command                          check_ssh

          max_check_attempts                    2

          check_interval                             10

          retry_interval                              5

          check_period                               24x7

          notification_interval                      60

          first_notification_delay                  0

          notification_period                        24x7

          contacts                                     nagiosadmin

          notification_options                       c,w,r

          }

 

All hosts in Hostgroup1 get checked for ssh except ServerC.

Subject: [Nagios-users] question about hostgroups

 


hi all, 
Say I have a hostgroup defined that has serveral services attached to it, like a typical linux server so its easy to add a server, just assigned it to this hostgroup and all the basic stuff come in automaticly. 
Now lets say that I'm adding a new host and I want him to have all the same services as every other linux server except for one services, can I somehow tell nagios not to apply that services check to this host ? 

Thanks in advance for any help you may provide.

Cheers 

Arnar
