Hosts not showing up in host group summary

[WillemDH]

Hello,

Maybe as workaround you could, untill the issue gets solved, configure a ping service for all hosts?

Hosts without services will not be displayed in any of the services pages or dashboards, though they should show up in the host pages.
EDIT: Are the contacts that are having an issue set up as contacts for all the hosts in the hostgroup in question?

I have to agree with others that this sucks. This is one of the few things about XI that I really don't understand or like.

For me, for devices without services, I added a dummy service that never checks anything to that hostgroup. That way those hosts do show up. Something similar to the suggestion of adding a ping service. I prefer my method as it doesn't actually add another process and I prefer my ping checks to be on the host itself.

I think it pertains to how the objects are handled. This is an issue with the cgis as well. May be worth filing a bug report, but I am unsure if it is WAI and I wont be able to find out for a week or two as the core devs are all out of the office.

I've already post a bug report on 14-april-2013

Hope this will be solved soon.

This very well could be related to core. Post a bug report on the core tracker at: tracker.nagios.org
