Separate service instances for services running across different staging environments

Hi everyone

We have a service running which runs across 3 different staging environments eg. MODA, MODB, MODC.

When looking at the service it collates the data from across the 3 hosts it is running on.

Is there a way to separate the service and then rename them to show the environment they are running in?

The best way to do this is to have a separate 'host group' for each environment, which will ensure there are separate process groups and services for each environment/hostgroup.

To add. Once they are split by host group, you can then target them with customize-service-naming and change the names as needed.

You can also separate the process groups by using process group detection rules. This would be needful if you had different environments on the same host.
