Auto add new servers

[menno]

Hi there,
Is there a way to auto add servers ? and monitor with a set of tests ?

every week there are new servers in our LAN. Is it possible to auto add them ?
Some other monitor packages have scheduled LAN (server) discovery options. I could not find such an option in hostmonitor....will there be one in the next future ?

is there a other way to add new servers...can we edit the hml file ?
thanks in advance

Yes, HostMonitor does not have such option.
Yes, it will be implemented in future.
No, you cannot modify HML file directly but you may use text Import file to add new tests automatically.

Yes, there are some workarounds. E.g. or you may create templates and use HM Script to copy tests and modify variables (commands like ImportFromFile, CopyFolder, CopyAllTests, SetFolderVariable, SetFolderAgent)
Or your own application/script may generate text file with test settings and HostMonitor can import new settings automatically

Please check the manual for more information
