<html> <head> <style></style> </head> <body class='hmmessage'> I stumbled upon the answer to my issue for a custom status page. What I was doing wrong was I created in the servicegroups.cfg file with a line called members members HOSTNAME1,check_1, check_2, check_3,check_4,check_5,HOSTNAME2, SAME 5 CHECKS AS HOST #1,HOSTNAME3,SAME.... This method did not work. I wound up removing the members line from the servicegroups.cfg file, just leaving the service group name & the alias in the file and added the service group name to each define service for the 5 legacy_checks as follows : define service{ use generic-service servicegroups Legacy Checks hostgroup_name APP_servers contact_groups admins,legacy notification_options w,c active_checks_enabled 0 service_description Legacy CPU Load check_command check_legacy_cpu } This allowed me to get the service group for all different legacy checks I wanted. Then If I run the following url http://NAGIOS_SERVER/nagios/cgi-bin/status.cgi?servicegroup=Legacy+Checks&servicestatustypes=16 I get the list of all legacy checks for all hosts and the critical ones only. Hopefully someone else can benefit from this info.

This however will not work for what I am trying to do.
