Of course, those particular patterns (being regular expressions)
probably won't work correctly.  I might suggest:
HOST=%^db EXHOST=%dl2

The * in glob-syntax is superfluous when dealing with regular
expressions.  These now read "any host that begins with db except those
that have dl2 anywhere in the name"
