I manage 25 installation of SA. All are 'almost' identical'. I'm in the middle of making an entries file that will be copied to those 25 instances. For each instance I have to make some changes, like server names. The fewer changes I need to make, the better.
The %h would be the most useful, but maybe %w (IP address) as well. Or suppose for an External Errorlevel Check I could use the %p or %r as parameters for a CMD job. Just a thought. On the other hand, it would be handy that the server name shouldn't be given twice, at least for some checks. Suppose (and I do) copy a Diskspace Check for the C-drive for Server1, just to make a similar check for Server2. Now I have to change the server name on 2 places, once on the General tab and once in the Check definition. I can live with it though, just trying to optimize things.
