AppliesTo Scripting Question
Hi
I have spent some time trying to work this out but need. My environment consists of about 30 vCenter Servers (including their hypervisors). I am trying to create a dynamic group with a custom query that finds all those hypervisors with a certain property. In this instance, I am looking for specific versions of ESXi so have got the following custom query:
isVirtualization(contains(auto.version_number,"6.5.0"))
It picks up the ESXi hosts that are at version 6.5.0 but it also picks up ESXi hosts on other versions. Please can someone help point out where I am going wrong?
I will also look to expand it to include 6.7.0 and 7.0.0 first things first.
Thanks for any assistance.
Regards,
Michael
It sounds like you are expecting a function to be able to take arguments, because "function". I did as well many years ago when I wanted to create a single isClient function with the client name as an argument, but found after a very painful support ticket that they absolutely are not functions, just macros.
You would need to write a separate version for each check. In this case, you would have to add a new function like this and a new one for each version:
system.virtualization=~"VMware" && auto.version_number =~"6\\.5\\.0*"
