Host / Service Inheritance

[M. van Egmond]

Hi all, I would like to create some templates for the various servers we have in our network.

I would like to do something as follows:

#Host template
define host {
	name            	http-server
	host_name		http-server
	register		0
}
#Service Template for http servers
define service {
	host_name		http-server
	check_command           check_http
	service_description	HTTP
	register		0
}

#Now define some real servers

#www1
define host {
	use			http-server
	host_name		www1
	address			10.0.0.1
}

#www2
define host {
	use			http-server
	host_name		www1
	address			10.0.0.2
}

I would expect to have two hosts with both having one service called HTTP. However this doesn't work. There are two hosts, but without any services.

Is there a way to have hosts also inherit the template's services?

Thanks alot for your info!
