I think I understand you, it means I have to go to each and every host and define a template, right? As said, if I do this, it works. The only drawback is if I ever need to apply a different template to a bunch of hosts, it will take quite a bit of time (as I don't have the bulk modification option)...

I added the Penta Switches template to MW Switches Template, which has the MW Switches hostgroup defined.

2. Well, actually nothing is working. Before diving further into this: it does work if I assign a template directly to the host or service. I assume this should not be necessary, adding a host/service to a host-/servicegroup which has an assigned template should do the trick right?

Thanks, 1. thanks for clearing that up, is there any difference in adding a host to a host group or adding a host group to a host? 2. I know that, everything is left blank. In fact I got two seperate 'department templates', which are the same except the name. One is working, the other one isn't. Loo...

I'm new to Nagios XI and trying to set up some host groups and templates, but I'm experiencing some difficulties. The first problem is that hosts sometimes won't show up in the host groups's assigned hosts list. The specific host is greyed out so I can't add it. If I then go to that specific host, a...
