Creating Hostgroups based on Hostnames
Configure host-to-groups.map
to create a group based on hosts.
Apply the configurations shown in the Open iT server.
Open
host-to-groups.map
in the Configuration director, which is by default inC:\Program Files\OpeniT\Core\Configuration
.Notice that it contains instructions on how to edit the file.
Specify host names with the following syntax:
MAP: HostGroupName (GroupType) Hostname1 Hostname2
It is recommended to include the
GroupType
, although the mapping will work regardless of its inclusion.Empty lines are allowed — any line beginning with # as the first non-white character is considered a comment. Globbing is also supported.
ExampleMAP: MNL-Group (Location) mnl*
This example maps all hosts starting with mnl in MNL-Group and using the Location as group type.
Save the changes.
