we are doing that. But this is half of the convenience. An ideal configuration
architecture does assign groups to groups, with potential exclusions.Beleive me,
it is much more convenient. Right now we are assigning groups to individual
services. Which is just a convenience issue, and, as I've heard will be resolved
in 2.x.</SPAN></FONT></DIV>

<P><SPAN lang=en-us><FONT face=Arial size=2>I was unable to find how to
define service groups in the documentation or in FAQ. I need to define a set
of services and assign it to a group of hosts. So that is a host gets added
to a group it automatically gets appropriate checks and if new service is
added to be check in the service group all hosts in that host group would
get it. Corresponding removals would be nice to get working as
well.</FONT></SPAN></P>
