Hi,

Is there somewhere with a large collection of non-trivial configuration
examples?  The docs tell what variables do but mostly do not demonstrate
even trivial usage.

Not that I'm aware of. Well, there are usage examples, but quite
distributed over various places. There are attempts going on to add more
"Best practices"-like examples to the documentation, recently a lot of
effort has been invested in doing so for the HA/Clustering documentation.

However, if I didn't misunderstand what you're asking for, this should
be pretty easy to accomplish once reading the basic introduction:

http://docs.icinga.org/icinga2/latest/doc/module/icinga2/chapter/monitoring-basics

(plus eventually the migration hint in case you have an Icinga 1.x or
Nagios background)

With that basic knowledge it should be fairly easy to interpret the
options provided by the "http" check command:

http://docs.icinga.org/icinga2/latest/doc/module/icinga2/chapter/plugin-check-commands#plugin-check-command-http

So, one solution to your example could be as simple as:

template Host "Hosts reachable only via HTTP" {
 check_command = "http"
}

object Host "www.example.com" {
 import "Hosts reachable only via HTTP"

 address = "172.31.31.170"
}

This appears to be exactly what I tried, which did not work, but I will try again.
