Feature request: Remove host(s) in service from host group

Post by esendex »

I'd like the ability to exclude certain hosts from host groups inside a service check rather than having to make a new host group that doesn't include those hosts. I've previously requested this before and was told it was included in the next update, but unfortunately it never got added.

i don't have an active XI install currently, but IIRC, you should be able to select the '-' option from the GUI when configuring it.

this then acts as a negate to the expected result.

Hello, @esendex. As of right now, there's no way to exclude one host from the host group for only one check.It may be hard to implement within core config architecture. Do you happen to have a task id for that feature request?
