How to make 1 exception for 1 host when mapping services to hostgroups?

[Jelle Smet]

Hi List,

My setup is more complicated than this but here's the essence:

- I have created a hostgroup called linux_servers
- I have created 10 service checks with default values.
- Each individual service check has a hostgroup_name "linux_servers"

This effectively applies all 10 check against all hosts member of the
linux_servers group.

Now what to do with following situation:

For one of the hosts I want to have a different threshold for only the
"Root
Disk" test.

I initially though that defining the service a second time, with the
host_name
tag, would have precedence over the fact it's defined through
hostgroup_name.
But apparently this is not...

So I could create a check with a new name "Root Disk custom" where I use
the
host_name tag, which works, ... But then again, I still have the original
"Root
Disk" test

How can I tackle this in a as clean way as possible?

Thanks
