Hi,
I would also like to be able to create empty hostgroups with services assigned.
The reason for this is that I've setup a nagios installation for a customer
where a host is only member to one hostgroup to inherit services from other
hostgroups, like all->windows->citrix->server and for a few special servertypes
I would like to prepare the chain with hostgroup and services so that when the
servers are ready to be monitored everything is prepared and the servers only
needs to be added to the apropriate hostgroup.
Best regards,
Fredrik Barrud
