Aliases

Often, when deciding how to arrange things, it may make sense to have something in more than one place. You may have a group of "Unix Servers" containing all of your unix servers, and also a group "Web Servers" containing all of your web servers. While you could just monitor the service twice, that just seems silly.

An Alias acts much like a "symlink", allowing the same object to be in more than one place, but still just one object.

	Group "Web Servers" {
		Alias "threemile"  "Top:Unix_Servers:threemile"
		Alias "tarawa"     "Top:NT_Servers:tarawa"
		Alias "matagi"     "Top:NT_Servers:matagi"
	}
