Creating servicegroups
Creating servicegroups in nagios is non-intuitive and also there is no default servicegroup. Example configuration of a service group is:
define servicegroup{ servicegroup_name Ping alias Ping members ca1,Ping,ldap1,Ping,wiki1,Ping
where ca1, ldap1 and wiki1 are host_name and Ping is service_description. Thus members of servicegroup are created by specifying host_name and service_description pairs. Intuitively most administrators assume servicegroup members to be host_name and service_name which unfortunately is not the case.
