[Xymon] analysis.cfg question

[didier.bringer at orange.com]

Hi all,

It makes me think of a feature that would be very nice...

The ability to create a configuration based on "tags" and so one would be able to build confs without listing explicitly machines inside

page mygroup
group-compress mywww
0.0.0.0      www1 # http://www1/
0.0.0.0      www2 # http://www2/
0.0.0.0      www3 # http://www3/
...

Would become

page mygroup
group-compress-on-tag  mywww tag=mywww
0.0.0.0      clientname   # http://clientname/


And the group would be dynamic (the number of machines is not relevant)...  and the line of config would be based on a template line

For EC2 hosts, I changed MACHINEDOTS variable in runclient.sh on xymon client.
eg.
MACHINEDOTS=hostname.example.com<http://hostname.example.com>

On server side, no need to use CLIENT or NAME in hosts.cfg, just use the name which is defined in client's MACHINEDOTS.

Is it possible to key on the "NAME:" or "CLIENT:" definition instead of HOST?  Monitoring several systems in EC2 and all the servers have hosts defined as ec2-12-34-56-78.blah.blah.blah.
