how can you filter the system list it seems that simple wildcard filtering does not work

e.g `*-dev*` no results

add all `*-dev*` systems to a system group …

can’t find info about how to write filters in the documentation

Hi, have you tried with no \* ?

Like just -dev ?

I tried most of the common wildcard things, also regex

only like ‘-d’ and ‘-d%’ gives results but not the correct results

once you try a more complex filter you do not get responses.

no word about it in the docs
