<p class="MsoNormal">I’m having trouble getting a regex going for hostnames in analysis.cfg<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I’ve got machines iadncmds1 through iadncmds6 and iadccmds1 through iadncmds9 and a couple other machines, all should/will have the same things to look at (ports, procs, etc).<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I’ve tried the following:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">HOST=%iad(ncm|ccm)ds(1-9),apancmdsd1,iadncmdsd2<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">HOST=%iad(ncm|ccm)ds\d,apancmdsd1,iadncmdsd2<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">HOST=%iad(ncm|ccm)ds.*,apancmdsd1,iadncmdsd2<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">HOST=%iad(ncm|ccm)ds(.*),apancmdsd1,iadncmdsd2<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Any help here?<o:p></o:p></p>
