To be more specific: It's a Nagios host with customer-specific directories for the customer-specific Nagios objects created both, manually and by the Nagios exported resources. > > It sounds to me like exported resources are the wrong solution to this > problem.

The customer-specific filesystem tree within the Nagios configuration must not exist unless there is at least one customer host defined. If I had to declare it ordinarily for node A I had to touch A's definitions every time I'm adding or removing a new customer.
