Hi,

When we create a host defintion, along with the host other service checks CPU, Memory, Swap, Network Traffic are getting created by default.

How can this be achieved.

If we want to remove these service definitions what needs to be done.

We are using Nagios Core.

Regards,
Pratapa

this can happen if you have created a service that has a hostgroup assigned to it.

Every time you create a host and add it to a hostgroup, it will get all of the services that have that hostgroup assigned.
