Nagios Support Forum

Hi developers,

I am getting following warnings during the "Reading configuration
data..." step:

Warning: Specified hostgroup 'preita.abc' has no members (config file
'/etc/nagios/config/abc/hostgroups.cfg', starting on line 1)
Warning: Specified hostgroup 'def' has no members (config file
'/etc/nagios/config/hostgroup.cfg', starting on line 1)
Warning: Specified hostgroup 'postit.def' has no members (config file
'/etc/nagios/config/def/hostgroups.cfg', starting on line 1)

But Nagios starts without any errors. And Nagios knows the groups and
their members. objects.cache:

e.g. one group:

define hostgroup {
hostgroup_name preita.abc
alias preita.abc
members
batch2.preita.abc,batch1.preita.abc,online2.preita.abc,online1.preita.abc
}

So I am pretty sure this Warning messages are wrong!=20

BTW 2 wishes about hostgroups:

1. empty hostgroups
if hostgroups without any members exist Nagios won't start. I really
would appreciate if Nagios could throw warnings instead.=20

2. hide hostgroups from the cgi interface
With earlier Nagios Versions it was possible to define groups as
templates (register 0). These groups weren't shown on the webinterface.
I would really appreciate a switch like "hide_from_cgis 0/1" for the
hostgroups.=20

Cheers,

Gerd
