I am wondering if NPM allows the use of a regex pattern in the SCOPE specification at the very beginning of an alert.
For example, alert on all objects where Node Name contains
^[A-Za-z].*$
...this would exclude any node names that have numbers in them. Anyway I am not getting any matches on this regex. The regex itself is not the problem. I guess I just don't know if regex is allowed in the alert SCOPE. (choosing which objects to filter on)
