LLD macros and regexprs

[cscott]

I want to get auto discovery to check both the fs type and name via a regexp

The systems in question are zfs and have many fs, and I want to exclude part of the tree and the psuedo fs

My regexps work individually but when I try to combine them they fail, or rather the macros arent generating the string I think they are.


eg
regexpr is

FS_discovery
1 » (btrfs|ext2|ext3|ext4|jfs|reiser|xfs|ffs|ufs|jfs|j fs2|vxfs|hfs|ntfs|fat32|zfs) [Result is TRUE]
2 » .(el-)*archive-[0-9]+.* [Result is FALSE]

when I use the macro {$FSTYPE} on its own i get just zfs fs but all of them as expected.

If i use {$FSNAME} as the macro i get all pseudo fs as well as zfs except ones under the path matching line 2 (in this case /archive-1/)

this proves both bits of the regexpr works.

However when I try to use both the macros in the filer box i dont get anything working on the 2nd macro

eg if i have the following in the LLD filter macro field i only get part 1 of the regexpr kicking in, and vice versa if I swap them around

{#FSTYPE},{#FSNAME}

I am pretty sure the problem lies with the string im trying to generate with the macros isnt working like i think it supposed to (not done many macros yet, so its probably my cluelessness)

I am expecting to to generate a string like the following

zfs,/rpool
zfs,/
zfs,/archive-1/
etc

what am i missing here?

I have tried a global user macro combining the output of{#FSTYPE} and {#FSNAME} but it didnt seem to help 8(

I'm also interested in the solution.
I'm added "zfs" to FSTYPE regexp, but some exclusions by FSNAME needed.
Are combining both filters (by FSTUPE and FSNAME) possible ?

I have had to create a huge regexpr to filter out all the psuedo file systems from bsd, linux, and solaris, and others I want to drop out and not use the FSTYPE. Its not elegant but it does work, but will need some maintainance if i find it misses some special cases in the future. Having it filter on FSNAME and FSTYPE would be far more robust

I'll second this. I'd like to filter some Windows drive letters, but also make sure it doesn't include CDROM drive letters. Is there some other way to achieve this?
