In CLIENT-LOCAL.CFG told: "When deciding which section to send to a client, Xymon will first look for a section named after the hostname of the client; if such a section does not exist, it will look for a section named by the operating system of the client. So you can configure special configurations for individual hosts, and have a default configuration for all other hosts of a certain type."
It would be very usefull to be possible to merge both host and OS type log files, etc definitions.
There are files present on any host of each type such as OS logs: /var/log/messages etc. And in most cases we need to monitor them.
And there are also host-specific files, for example DB/APP logs - that we define for each host.
Since I had added per-host entry - my log files defined by OS type - not checked anymore. But we need it!.
I know - it is easy to just add another lne to host definition, but it would be nice possibility to merge definitions already done for OS-type.
