In my University, all hosts on a page run a dsmc process. However, there are exceptions from the rule. In the hobbit-clients.cfg file, The rule that used to work is like this: PROC dsmc EXHOST=%.jotunn.rhi.hi.is
Now, yet another host is also exempt from the rule, so I tested the following rules: PROC dsmc EXHOST=%.jotunn.rhi.hi.is EXHOST=bestla.rhi.hi.is PROC dsmc EXHOST=%.jotunn.rhi.hi.is,bestla.rhi.hi.is
Both rules give unexpected results. So I expect that the rule should be written as a single regular expression, but I do not know the syntax. Can anybody refer me to a description of the syntax.

Hi,
Try using this:
PROC dsmc EXHOST=%(jotunn.rhi.hi.is|bestla.rhi.hi.is)

Sorry,
But I don't know what the bbcombotest.cfg operators have to do with the regular expressions hobbit uses in hobbit-clients.cfg...
I use the example I posted in my hobbit-clients.cfg to exclude some specific hosts from a common rule; and it's working.

Amazing! It works! :) I really do not understand this magic, but in fact the host jotunn.rhi.hi.is has a dsmc process running, but not the 42 hosts that are *.jotunn.rhi.hi.is and neither bestla.rhi.hi.is.
Thank You wery much. :)
