Excluding instances

The script to exclude component instances for all the services:

python dellemc_nagios_discovery_service_utility.py --host="IP address" --

service="Servicename" --excludeinstance="<AttributeName> operator <AttributeValue>" -

output.file=<host file location>

When the discovery utility script is run with valid arguments, it should exclude the instances of the components. Following are the

arguments provided:

1. --host: hostname or IP of the device

2. --services: Name of the component for which instances are excluded

3. --excludeinstance: A condition with IN or "==" operator to exclude instance

Excluding multiple instances

To exclude multiple instances, use "IN" operator with "()" For example,

python dellemc_nagios_discovery_service_utility.py --host="100.96.25.86" --service="NIC" -

excludeinstance="FQDD IN ('NIC.Integrated.1-3-1','NIC.Integrated.1-4-1')" -output.file=/usr/

local/nagios/dell/config/objects

NOTE: "IN" operator is not case-sensitive.

Excluding single instance

To exclude single instances, use "==" operator. For example,

python dellemc_nagios_discovery_service_utility.py --host="100.96.25.86" --service="NIC" -

excludeinstance="FQDD == 'NIC.Integrated.1-3-1'" -output.file=/usr/local/nagios/dell/config/

objects

NOTE: If output.file option is not provided, it takes the value as "<NAGIOS_HOME>/dell/config/objects"
