Within the ruleset "Periodic service discovery" you can indicate service names or regexes in "Activate only services matching" resp. "Don't activate services matching" below "Service Filters" > "Dedicated white-/blacklists for new and vanished services" in order to control which new detected services are added automatically.

Now there are two new lists "Remove only matching vanished services" and "Don't remove matching vanished services" for vanished services below "Service Filters" > "Dedicated white-/blacklists for new and vanished services" in order to control which vanished services are removed automatically.

Below "Service Filters" > "Combined white-/blacklists for new and vanished services" you can give patterns for both new and vanished services.

Migration notes: Previously there were only the options "Activate only services matching" and "Don't activate services matching" for new and vanished services. These kind of rules are migrated to be compatible: these lists can now be found below "Service filters" > "Combined white-/blacklist for new and vanished services".
