It appears to be understanding the config correctly, but it's still
alerting on the percentage:
M (96% used) has reached the PANIC level (95%)
Filesystem    1K-blocks         Used        Avail  Capacity  Mounted
Label      Summary(Total\Avail GB)
M            2115137532   2032580452     82557080        96% /FIXED/M:\
Ret_Mail   2017.15\78.73

It still might be part of the DEFAULT entry, though. Is the "host" entry
listed literally as:

HOST=innocent2.in.hq,innocent.in.hq

...in the config? IIRC, that needs to be a regex. Comma-separated is only
used when specifying colors (which aren't evaluated textually).


HTH,
-jc

If it's not parsing comma separated HOST= lines then the man pages are
wrong.  I'll separate it out and see if it makes any difference.

Here's the section from the analysis.cfg man page:
HOST=targetstring Rule matching a host by the hostname. "targetstring" is
either a comma-separated list of hostnames (from the hosts.cfg file), "*" to
indicate "all hosts", or a Perl-compatible regular expression. E.g.
"HOST=dns.foo.com,www.foo.com" identifies two specific hosts;
"HOST=%www.*.foo.com EXHOST=www-test.foo.com" matches all hosts
with a name beginning with "www", except the "www-test" host.
It's separated out with only that hostname on a HOST= line by itself.  No change in behavior.  I waited 4 hours between when I made the change and when I checked the results as I was out all morning, so it has definitely taken affect by now.

Any ideas?
