[FEATURE] Add dependent_servicegroup_name to CCM in XI

[eloyd]

In Core, I can use "time-saving tricks" to specify the following:

Code: Select all

define servicedependency{
        service_description             NRPE:service
        dependent_servicegroup_name     NRPE
        execution_failure_criteria      u,w,c,p
        notification_failure_criteria   u,w,c,p
}

This means all services in the NRPE service group are dependent upon the service called NRPE:service being in an OK state on the same machine before they will execute or notify. Add a new NRPE-based service to the system, drop it in the NRPE servicegroup, and this dependency will automatically kick in.

There is no dependent_servicegroup_name field in Nagios XI 5.2.9 for me to do the same thing. https://assets.nagios.com/downloads/nag ... dependency defines this as being a valid configuration, so please add this functionality to Nagios XI's GUI. Thanks.
