Wildcards in service escalations query

[Mohit Chawla]

Hi,

If we have:

define serviceescalation {
    host_name                  *
    service_description    *
    ...
}

, then, if there is no service associated with a host, this definition
will be regarded invalid. But what about if a particular service is
not associated with any host ? Will it fail in that case as well ? I
was able to find hosts which don't have any services defined, and I
used:
define serviceescalation {
    host_name                      *, !foo.com, !bar.com
    service_description        *
    ....
}
, where foo and bar are the hosts with no services defined. But I
still get 'could not expand services ....' error on this escalation
definition.

Any clues ?
