I would say: 1. Yes, you can group endpoints in a high-availability setup, but think of hostgroups, not zones. 2. Zones are very specifically for Icinga's configuration management; don't try to (ab)use them for anything else. 3. Are you familiar with "apply" and "assign where ..." (see section 3.5 of https://docs.icinga.com/icinga2/latest/doc/module/icinga2/chapter/monitoring- basics ), which should then make your definitions of service checks a lot simpler? 4. What did you make of Michael Martinez' answer to your previous question on this topic https://lists.icinga.org/pipermail/icinga-users/2016- November/011523.html ? I personally found that very helpful in creating an "aggregate check" which I happened to need to do last week. Regards, Antony. -- This is not a rehearsal. This is Real Life.
