Some hostgroups NOT displaying (weirdness) SOLVED

[Frater, Greg J]

Okay, I apparently have not learned the lesson to check the archives
first.  I found the answer there
(http://article.gmane.org/gmane.network.nagios.user/45395/match=hostgrou
p+not+display), I did not check there until after I posted.  Anyways for
future reference our problem was due to NOT having the web ui users as a
contact of a hosts in the offending hostgroups.
 
Regards,

Subject: [Nagios-users] Some hostgroups NOT displaying (weirdness)



Greetings All, 

I'm pretty lost and could use some help.  We are moving a Nagios 1.x
setup to Nagios 3.0.6.  We have about 550 hosts and some 5000 services.
About 3/4 of the way through our migration of config files we noticed
that some of our hostgroups are not showing up in the web ui,  but I
have yet to figure out why.  There are certain hostgroups (but not all)
that are not displaying and if they are listed in the
'hostgroup_members' directive of another hostgroup it will cause the
second hostgroup not to display either.  I've tried every combination of
member and hostgroup_members that I can think of but so far the only way
I can duplicate the problem is use one of the known problem groups.
Does anyone know what the logic or rules are that are used to determine
if a hostgroup will display in the web ui or not?  Any other suggestions
on what to try to track this down?  Any help is appreciated.

Thanks, 

-greg
