This works for me now after upgrading to 2.0rc1 (I believe it didn't
in 2.0b4), and that is great!
But this resulted in another problemwith defining the hostgroups in template-hosts only:
# cf template host (based on another global template)
define host {
use linux-host
name linux-host-cf
hostgroups cf-servers
contact_groups cf-core
register 0
}
# cf-servers - host group definition
define hostgroup {
hostgroup_name cf-servers
alias cf-servers
}
# cf-app1 - application server #1
define host {
use linux-host-cf
host_name cf-app1
alias cf-app1
hostgroups cf-appservers
address 10.0.0.21
}
[a lot of hosts]
# diffhost - last host based on linux-host-cf template
define host {
use linux-host-cf
host_name diffhost
alias diffhost
address 10.0.0.43
}
The wierd thing is that diffhost is the only host showing up
(webinterface) in the cf-servers hostgroup, and I also get warnings
during the configtest about the other hosts having no services
associated with them (I specify a ping-service to the cf-servers
hostgroup).
