[checkmk-commits] 7333 Introduce predefined conditions for rulesets

Module: check_mk Branch: master Commit: 6d5e82cee3797bda8ba6087dafd513ccb04445dd URL: http://git.mathias-kettner.de/git/?p=check_mk.git;a=commit;h=6d5e82cee3797b… Author: Lars Michelsen <lm(a)mathias-kettner.de> Date: Tue Apr 2 14:51:07 2019 +0200 7333 Introduce predefined conditions for rulesets In the rule-based configuration of Check_MK ("Host & Service Parameters" and "Manual Checks") it often happens that rules with the same conditions have to be created in different rule chains. With a larger number of rules, this quickly becomes confusing. To improve this situation we have now added a feature called "Predefined conditions". The idea is to preconfigure conditions in a central place, to which you can later refer in the individual rule chains. A predefined condition currently always consists of a full set of conditions (folder, tags, host specification, service specification). A rule can either use explicit conditions, as before, or refer to a predefined condition now. You access the predefined conditions via a context button from the pages on which you manage your rule chains.
