I am also interested in hearing more about this... I had no luck trying to use forward assertions in order to omit a few select hosts from a service definition.
Thank you, Christian.

The Nagios documentation relating to the "regular _expression_" matching
seems very thin to me. And not quite clear.
It appears, by example, that the only regular expressions you can use
are "*" and "?", which I would just consider wildcard matching and not
regular expressions.
Regardless, can anything else be used as far as these "regular
expressions" are concerned?
The documentation uses the examples of "host *", and I am assuming that
I can do something like "host *-edu" or "host tc-??-00".
And can these regular expressions be used everywhere in the configs? For
instance, we have an 110K escalations config file that could in theory
be reduced to just:
define serviceescalation{
host_name *
service_description *
first_notification 3
last_notification 0
contact_groups
on-duty-pagers,off-duty-pagers,operations-email
notification_interval 30
}
Right now we have one unique entry for every service_description on
every host_name.
So is the above correct? would that work? can anything at all be used
besides "*" and "?" for matching?
Thanks!
P.S. Are there any plans to clarify the documentation in this regards?
