Check_cluster help?

[Christopher Kalos]

    Before I roll this out, I understand how to configure the command for
individual services.  I'm just at a loss for how to set it up as a service
to be checked.
    Services are always checked on a per-host basis.  In the case of a
service cluster, how do you set this up?  Do you just set up a cluster check
for *one* host, as it's really a dummy command that just scrubs the status
log, or do you set it up to check all members of the cluster?  I'd assume
the former for alert generation, but without built-in cluster support for
nagios, both methods seem contrary to the general methods that nagios uses
to rank service problems and generate alerts.
    I personally think that clustering shouldn't be dependent on a plugin,
as the check itself doesn't even rely on checking the services at all.  Is
this going to be rolled into a future version of Nagios as a configuration
option?
