Auto Reg with Regex for hostname

[wiliamL]

Trying to create a auto reg for linux and hostnames with dev in them. I have read a few posts but noone has posted the actual fix.


Host metadata contains Linux
Host name contains (?i)dev <--because dev can be captalized or lowercase. But this does not work.

im guessing the syntax is not correct, but i have tried [Dd][Ee][Vv]
conditionid:26 conditiontype:22 cond.value:'[Dd][Ee][Vv]' cond.value2:'' result:FAIL


thanks in advance

Have you tried Host name Matches

.*[dD][eE][vV].*

The order of [dD] doesn't matter, I think you need the leading and trailing .*

that "(?i)dev" regex should be ok.. https://regex101.com/r/KCQKtH/1
But you need to use "Matches" instead of "contains"... "Contains" is the string to match, not regex. So it is taken literally as "(?i)dev" not as regex.

Host name

contains does not contain matches does not match

Specify a host name or a host name to exclude. contains - host name contains the string. does not contain - host name does not contain the string. matches - host name matches regular expression. does not match - host name does not match regular expression.

Both worked. I had the syntax incorrect. I was using contains and not match.

Thank you both of you for replying. Much appreciated.
