Override a threshold for one host in a template

I had a somewhat similar problem (all of my servers use the same 30 or
so services, except one of them doesn't have remote access, so it only
needs 29). Here is what I did. It sounds like you did about the same:
- create a hostgroup
- create 30 services
- in each service, specify the corresponding hostgroup_name that it
should go into.
- make all 30 hosts part of that hostgroup
Now to deal with this one server, let's call it problem.server.com for
service DIFFICULTSERVICE:
In the declaration for DIFFICULTSERVICE, exclude problem.server.com:
hostname !problem.server.com
Declare another service DIFFICULTSERVICE just for problem.server.com
with the correct parameters.
