This works just fine in my install of nagios (nagios-HEAD from about a
month an a half ago). I pretty much took your config verbatim. I don't
know why it doesn't work for you. Does the template named 'host'
exist? Note also that I believe your intent is to have 'hostgroups
+win_servers' in your win-host template but it's irrelevant to the
issue you're reporting.
Here's what I tested with --
define host{
name generic-host
notifications_enabled 1 ; Host notifications
are enabled
event_handler_enabled 1 ; Host event handler
is enabled
flap_detection_enabled 0 ; Flap detection is
enabled
process_perf_data 0 ; Process performance
data
retain_status_information 0 ; Retain status
information across program restarts
retain_nonstatus_information 1 ; Retain non-status
information across program restarts
max_check_attempts 1
check_period 24x7
checks_enabled 1
notification_interval 0
notification_period none
notification_options d,r
initial_state o
register 0 ; DONT REGISTER THIS
DEFINITION - ITS NOT A REAL HOST, JUST A TEMPLATE!
}
define host {
use generic-host
name prod-host
hostgroups prod_servers #Production server host
notification_period 24x7
register 0
}
define host {
use generic-host
name win-host
hostgroups win_servers #Windows server host group
register 0
}
define host {
use prod-host,win-host
name windows-server
address 192.1.1.1
alias My Windows Production Server
}
-bash-2.05b$ bin/nagios -v etc/nagios.cfg
Nagios 3.1.2
