hosts in multiple hostgroups

[Ints]

I have, in fact, the very same problem, but  I just added a 
line to exclude that specific host  (so technically it was
double-excluded) and it didn't cry at me anymore. For some reason, only
the 1st host (when listed alphabetically) generates that problem as I
didn't need to exclude any other hosts in a sub-group.

Now, I'd like to monitor disk services and send email to 'erp-admins'
