Recently we has CMOS battery problems on a random selection of about 20 of our ~500 nodes. I needed to do the same MAAS operations on all of them, so I tried a couple of different ways to get them all to show up in a web UI search.
Spaces didn’t work:
rnd002 rnd065 rnd113
Commas didn’t work:
rnd002,rnd065,rnd113
Commas and parentheses didn’t work:
(rnd002,rnd065,rnd113)
I found this explanation of how searches work, but I wasn’t able to figure out from it any working way to get “OR” on machine names:
The docs about the filtering DSL is the one you already linked. So it’s just about learning how to make the queries and look at the available properties that can be used for filtering.
Still, it misses some properties that can be used for filtering such as hostname so we have to update it accordingly
