<p class="MsoNormal">Hi<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I am running Xymon server 4.3.30, and the vast majority of windows clients using BBwin, and trying xymonpsclient on a couple.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">After advise from another users, I could successfully use central mode for services, which is ok for a couple of clients but then gets quite wieldy when it is going to be dozens.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I tried the following in analysis.cfg file<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I created a regular expression for one pattern of hostnames, and then for the extra services that differ on certain servers, I added a specific host/service entry. This works fantastically well.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I then tried to add another regular expression for another pattern of hostnames, and would similarly try to add in exceptions.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">This does not work, the machines with the new pattern are still being given the services list for the first pattern. What I also tried was removing the second regular expression and just have a specific host/service entry. That also does
not work, as it still gets the original services list even though the hostname does not fit the pattern.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">See below for excerpt from analysis.cfg<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Does anyone have any idea how/if I can do what I am trying?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Regards<o:p></o:p></p>
