exclude function and the static directory

Post by Bitflogger »

Hello, I am running v5.5.2, 64-bit, VM, CentOS7

I have set up some files in the static directory, due to the need to exclude some hostgroups in some service definitions.

I see a !<checkbox> in the Manage Hostgroups widget, for each included hostgroup, so is the static directory still required for the exclude syntax?

No it is not, you can now create hostgroups the exclude hosts in the CCM using the ! <checkbox> you found
