Getting Data In

Can you sort available hosts

gillisme

When adding logs from forwarders [Add Data - Select Forwarders], the list of available hosts appears to be random. We have hundreds of servers, having to scroll though pages of servers names that all look the same to find the one you want is a royal pain. 

Is there any way to have that list appear sorted to make the selection process easier?

Thanks.
