Add a bulk of servers from csv to a host group?

Post by jamesc23 »

Hi,

I have a list of servers which I'd like to add to a host group with having to do it manually. Is there a command or a faster way of doing this?

Thanks.

The easiest way to go about adding many hosts to a hostgroup at one time would be to use our 'bulk modifications' tool.

You could refer to your CSV file and add all of the hosts necessary - I can't imagine this taking a very long time unless you had thousands of hosts. Let me know if the above solution will work for you.

It looks OK. Does this cost anything to implement or at least to trial?+
