Okay here's the minimal config (I'm assuming you already have simple
templates for generic-host and generic-service):
define command{
command_name check_dummy
command_line $USER1$/check_dummy $ARG1$
}
define hostgroup{
hostgroup_name test
alias test - hosts used for testing
}
define host{
use generic-host
host_name test
alias test - Host used for testing new service checks in Nagios
address 10.123.123.123
hostgroups +test
parents localhost
}
define service
host_name test
use generic-service
service_description test
check_command check_dummy!0 "test always succeeds"
}
define service
host_name test
use generic-service
service_description test
check_command check_dummy!0 "test always succeeds"
}
When I run nagios -v against a nagios.cfg which reads this config, I get:
Warning: Duplicate definition found for service 'test' on host
'test' (config file '/usr/local/nagios/etc/objects/test/services.cfg',
starting on line 1)
which is fair enough as the service is indeed defined twice, but in
the totals at the end I get:
Total Warnings: 0
Total Errors: 0
Note this behaves the same whether the second service is defined using
directive "host_name test" or "hostgroup_name test".
hth,
Jim
