That's a perfectly good question.
Let's say for example that the servers that manage our backup system
run on Sun Solaris. I need to notify our Unix Administration group if
something happens to the backup servers. However, the administrator
of the backup system, is not in the Unix admin

Would it be okay then to have a host entry in the hosts.cfg file like
this based upon the response I received from Dennis Hünsler:
define host{
host_name bogus-router
alias Bogus Router #1
address
I may be mistaken , but i don't think you can /need to define both contact
groups and individual
contacts in the host declaration.
Besides that - the definitions look fine .

That's what I'm trying to find out. Can I put an individual contact
within the contact_groups list?
ie;
contact_groups router-admins,lmeier
Thank you,

Thank you so much for your response. Can I use a mix of both
individuals and contact groups when defining who should be contacted
if a problem occurs?

Hi Layne,
I have a question for anyone that can answer this for me. From the
documentation, in configuring a host, this is the example given:
define host{
host_name bogus-router
alias Bogus Router #1

Hi Layne,
regarding the config you can configure contacts in stead of complete
groups, but the keyword is contactS not contact as in your example :-)
