Thanks. I didn't realize that there were docs posted for 2.0 at this
stage. I found an answer in the What's New section:
Hostgroup Changes
* Hostgroup escalations removed - Hostgroup escalations have been
removed. Their functionality can be duplicated by using the
hostgroup_name directive in hostgroup definitions.
Although I must admit, this statement does not make a great deal of
sense to me. I guess I'll figure it out when it comes time to upgrade.
