Hello,

 

We are currently running Pro r8993 with 650+ devices and will be adding another 400 or so shortly, to support this we will try a deployment as described in some detail by Markus: http://blog.best-practice.se/2017/10/scaling-observium-horizontally.html

 

We do however also have another edge case to deal with in the form of an infrastructure that we cannot look into but can send out of, the inhibitor is political and not technical.

 

We are halfway to solving it technically however by using a poller remotely with wildcard host name matching as the ‘remote’ stuff has a common domain part.

 

Our other ‘normal’ pollers however need to be told to exclude or skip polling / discovery of the remote devices.   

 

Can a wildcard skip or exclude be added to the poller-wrapper script for this purpose?

 

Picture attached for reference.

 

Regards
