Service Group.

What does the config file look like for these services and the service
group? Did you reload the config into Nagios after the change? Any
warnings at that time?

You might also want to check that you have the servicegroup.cfg file (or
whatever you have called it) either in a directory referenced by
'cfg_dir' or directly called in by your nagios.cfg file. 

I would think nagiosQL would do that for you, but a quick test would be
to manualyl edit the servicegroup file and deliberately put an error in
it. If it barfs up an error, then you can be sure its reading the file
in
