Hosts

Hosts are exported with many related objects and object relations.

Host export contains:

  • hosts data
  • host inventory data
  • groups relations
  • templates relations
  • interfaces
  • macros
  • applications
  • items
  • discovery rules with all prototypes

When host is imported and updated, it can only be linked to additional templates and never be unlinked from any.
