I have just discovered some 25+ servers and would like to moitor CPU/memory/uptime for all of them and move the rest of the discovered services to “Disable” – is there a service discovery parameter/rule I can use that will enable a service
for all hosts so I don’t have to edit all 25 manually?

So If I read this right you only want to monitor 3 things on these 25+ servers? Quickest way to achieve this would be to put them in the same folder and then create a ‘disabled services’ rule in that folder, and put the 3 services (CPU, Memory, Uptime) in the ‘Explicit Services’. Then choose negate.

That’s exactly what I am trying to achieve. I just didn’t know where to find the ‘disabled services’ rule to apply to the folder. Thanks for the guidance.

Hello,
That’s exactly what I am trying to achieve. I just didn’t know where to
find the ‘disabled services’ rule to apply to the folder. Thanks for the
guidance.
You find the rule in WATO -> Host & Service Parameters under
Monitoring Configuration -> Inventory and Check_MK Settings -> Disabled
Services.
There is also a search function under Host & Service Parameters. Just enter
the search string "disabled".
Regards,
Harald
