problem with process_perf_data

[Andreas Piesk]

hiho,

i cannot understand the way 'process_perf_data' works.

i can set 'process_perf_data' in nagios.cfg, in host definitions and
service definitions. in what order will the option be processed?
supersedes the option in nagios.cgi the definition in hosts or overrides
the definition in hosts the one in services?

what i'm trying to do is:
i only want the performance data of some services being processed, not
the hosts, not all services. but it doesn't work. the process_perf_data
in services- and host-configs are ignored. and the option in nagios.cfg
switches the processing on and off, but for all hosts and all services.

maybe what i'm trying isn't possible. can anyone shed some light?
