Test for all but one host 🔗 link

I want to set up a SVC test for all hosts where CLASS=powershell, except
for one host.  Is there a clean way to do this or will I have to set up a
HOST=... entry for every system?

For example, I wanted to do this:
CLASS=powershell
       SVC bbagent status=started

However, one and only one system doesn't run bbagent.  So is there some
kind of "cancel the default" override I can use?  Or will I have to do this:
HOST=server1
       SVC bbagent status=started
HOST=server3
       SVC bbagent status=started

Thanks in advance!

I haven't used this specifically, but I think you want to use the EXHOST=
statement.

CLASS=powershell
       SVC bbagent status=started   EXHOST=server2

Let us know if that works.

Using your suggestion worked perfectly.

Now that I know what to look for, I see it in the comments in the
configuration file.  I feel kind of dumb.  I'll read the comments of the
file more carefully in the future.  Thanks again for pointing me in the
right direction.
