I'm trying to get alerts working for a group of servers that have *soldb* in the server name but I can't seem to figure out the right syntax. Can anyone give me a hand with a *whatever* syntax? What I have at the moment is LOAD 70 100 HOST=%^/soldb*/ , and it isn't working.

There are slashes in your server names? Steve

Hostnames I would think don't tend to begin with a foward slash.

Try using these as examples
HOST=%swpmpb.*|swpaps.*|swpdps.*|swpdpb.*|swpapb.*
So host starting swp with any number or letter at the end as a wildcard

In future, you can test your regular expressions using xymon's "xymondboard" message type. Just set host to whatever follows the "%" and it will give you what matches. So to test "%soldb" you do this (from the Xymon server):
$ xymoncmd xymon localhost 'xymondboard host=soldb'

I'm trying to get alerts working for a group of servers that have *soldb* in the server name but I can't seem to figure out the right syntax. Can anyone give me a hand with a *whatever* syntax? What I have at the moment is LOAD 70 100 HOST=%^/soldb*/ , and it isn't working.
Hello, Elizabeth.
If "soldb" is not at the beginning of the hostname, then:
%.*soldb.* may work for you.
Another option might be to set up a page with all of those servers contained in it, and then alert on the page, instead.
