Exactly

I tried the same regular expression as in hobbit-client.cfg and it doesn't work. Tried on few servers without regular expression on hostnames and it worked.

Please help as I have to configure clientt-local.cfg for hundreds of servers :(

Thanks Ram

Force the host to belong to a specific class. Class-names are used when configuring log-file monitoring (they can be used as references in client-local.cfg(5) and hobbit-clients.cfg(5) to group logfile checks). Normally, class-names are controlled on the client by starting the Hobbit client with the "--class=Classname" option. If you specify it in the bb-hosts file on the Hobbit server, it overrides any classname that the client reports.
