move all hosts from one host group to another

[nmarbue79]

Hello,
I have a question:
I want to move all the hosts from one host group to another en masse, without having to do it with each host individually, is there any way to do it?
Thank you

You can do this thru the Bulk Modifications Tool. Go to Configure => Core Config Manager => Bulk Modifications Tool (left menu), then use the Add Host Group(s) function.

Hi,

Glat was helpful. Did you have any other questions or may we close this out?

Another question, is that it would be: if I have many hosts that belong to group A, many hosts that belong to group B, how do I do with this tool so that the hosts of group B stop belonging to group B and add them to the hosts of group A.

do I make those hosts not belong to groupB and then add them to group A?


Thank you very much for your time

There isn't a way to do that in one go, you would need to do this:

Bulk Modifications Tool:
- Add a Host Group
- Select group A at the top
- Click the button for "Select Hosts using Host Groups" and select group B
- Save

Bulk Modifications Tool:
- Remove a Host Group
- Select group B
- Click the "Find Relationships" button
- Check them all
- Save

Apply Configuration.

That will make all hosts in group B members of group A and then remove group B from the hosts you selected.
