That's almost identical to the example usage in the documentation and
should work as you expect -
http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/2_0/templaterecursion.html (see
Inheritance Chainging)
" define host{
host_name bighost1
check_command check-host-alive
notification_optionsd,u,r
max_check_attempts 5
namehosttemplate1
}
define host{
host_name bighost2
max_check_attempts 3
use hosttemplate1
namehosttemplate2
}
define host{
host_name bighost3
use hosttemplate2
}
"
The above are chained definitions for real hosts (register 1 assumed)
but it'll work for templates too I'm sure.

[Nagios-users] Can templates be cascaded together?
Can we cascade a template as in the following:
define service{
name blah
...
register 0
}
define service{
name info
use blah
...
register 0
}
define service{
name checkit
use info
...
}
Why would I want to use such an arrangement? Simple: the "blah" service defines
generic values I want for ALL service checks (enable_notifications, etc...).
The "info" service defines generic values for each check type - check_ping for
example (check_command, service description, etc...). Of course, "checkit" is
where I define which service to check on which host.
Would this work?
