Sync Rule - Import Host Template

[phil-or]

Current Behavior

We are importing our hosts from a csv-file. Then we use sync rules and filter expressions to assign host templates. For example: all hosts with var "Betriebssystem" "Linux" -> template_host_server_linux all hosts with var "Betriebssystem" "Windows" -> template_host_server_windows all other hosts should get "template_host_others"

so far so good, but if I want to assign more hosts to different templates, I have to change the filter for "template_host_others" each time and it gets very unclearly

Expected Behavior

Is there a better solution to implement this? maybe a filter expression, that assigns the "template_host_others" to all hosts, which have not yet assigned a template!?

Note for myself: doesn't work, they are merged. Needs a flag like "fallback-template, only in case there is no other import"...
