Removing a host does not remove host from hostgroups or servicegroups that reference it

[48kRAM]

Background:

I began using Adagios after running nconf for some time. My use of nconf resulted in having a 'serivcegroups.cfg' file that defines my servicegroups in a manner where each group references its members. Adagios and Nagios both recognize this. Same with hostgroups.

If I delete either a host or service that was a member of one of these "legacy" groups, Adagios does not remove the host/service from the group, resulting in a broken nagios instance until I edit the files.

Can this be fixed? Do you have recommendations for dealing with this state?

Thanks

Hi and thank you for using Adagios. Are you using OKconfig as well? Okconfig works very well with Adagios, so I suggest that you try that out and see if the problem occurs.

I have the OKconfig templates installed and can use it for new hosts, but hosts "imported" from our old server are the issue here.

Is there any pynag magic I can invoke to convert from groups->hosts to hosts->groups?

Sorry for late answer... You can use okconfig on the command line and create those hosts/groups and attach a service template to them. So if you have a list of those machines you could easily create commands to create them fast.

example: okconfig addhost --host linuxhost.example.com --address 127.1.1.1 --template linux --group linux-servers

Yes - any newly-created hosts work properly. I was hoping to find a way to change my existing hosts to be compatible. I'll probably just have to edit config files manually. :(
