Import problem

Post by Bitflogger »

Hello, I am running 5.5.10 when the problem occurred, I have since upgraded to 5.5.11. 64-bit, VM, CentOS7

I have imported my production configuration to my test server.

Excluded hosts and host groups in services become objects of the same name, with a "!" as the first character, and are not active.

The !* objects are in the expected lists of the services, but are not excluded.

Somehow the configuration apply function returns normal.

Exclusions with "!" cannot be imported. It's stated in our official documentation.

Hello,

Is that fundamentally impossible, or no one has had the time to do it yet?

Hello,

It's not impossible, but the reason it works like that right now is that previous versions of the CCM did not have the ability to use excluded objects. I made a note for this and will take a look into it, including a feature request and possibly get this in to the next minor release depending on the complexity.
