Scot,

I figured there must be some way of doing this, thanks for your help, this appears to be doing what I want.

There are rules ... and exceptions: IGNORE

A common scenario is where you handle most of the alerts with a wildcard rule, but there is just that one exception where you don't want any cpu alerts from the marketing server on Thursday afternoon. Then it is time for the IGNORE recipient:

           HOST=* COLOR=red

                          IGNORE HOST=marketing.foo.com SERVICE=cpu

TIME=4:1500:1800

                          MAIL admin at foo.com

I have a display group where I would like to ignore alerts for a specific test on a specific host.

It appears that the following definition

DISPLAYGROUP=%My\sGroup EXHOST=myhostname EXSERVICE=mytest COLOR=red

excludes all of the tests run on "myhostname" as well as all of the "mytest" tests run

on the other hosts in that group.

How do I arrange for these test exclusions to be logical ANDs?
