Yes.  See the CLASS option in the bb-hosts man page.  Basically you can
define a CLASS (group) of hosts, and then in client-local.cfg you can
do:


[classname]

log:`find /var/log/httpd -type f -maxdepth 1` size<10000000

Subject: [hobbit] client-local.cfg question

  
  Is there a way in client-local.cfg to group hosts by "like"
hostnames?  For example, if I have:

  
web01

web02

web03

web04

web05

  
And I want to setup file monitoring in /var/log/httpd, is there some
way to group them so that I don't have to define each one?  I'd like to
do something like:

  
[web*]

log:`find /var/log/httpd -type f -maxdepth 1` size<10000000

  
instead of having to do:

  
[web01]

...

[web02]

...

[web03]

...

  
Thanks-

Jay
