1 Title: Introduce predefined conditions for rulesets
10 In the rule-based configuration of Check_MK ("Host & Service Parameters" and
11 "Manual Checks") it often happens that rules with the same conditions have to
12 be created in different rule chains. With a larger number of rules, this
13 quickly becomes confusing.
15 To improve this situation we have now added a feature called "Predefined
16 conditions". The idea is to preconfigure conditions in a central place, to
17 which you can later refer in the individual rule chains. A predefined condition
18 currently always consists of a full set of conditions (folder, tags, host
19 specification, service specification). A rule can either use explicit
20 conditions, as before, or refer to a predefined condition now.
22 You access the predefined conditions via a context button from the pages on
23 which you manage your rule chains.
