Is it possible to use multiple regex on a PAGE= line of hobbit-alerts.cfg?

EG bb-hosts

page prodlinux Linux Servers
       ...
       subpage criticalprodlinux Critical Prod Linux Servers
       ...
       subpage noncriticalprodlinux Non-Critical Prod Linux Servers
       ...
page prodwin Windows Servers
       ...
       subpage criticalprodwin Critical Prod Windows Servers
       ...
       subpage noncriticalprodwin Non-Critical Prod Windows Servers
       ...


So what I have is my "prod" servers and then a subpage of critical ones
that
I want to get sms text pages on and then non-critical prod servers that I
don't really need a page at 3am on.

In my hobbit-alerts.cfg I want an email if any prodlinux or prodwin goes
yellow and a page if the critical ones go red

So in hobbit-alerts something like this:

PAGE=%prodlinux/.*,%prodwin/.*,someotherpage
       ...
       COLOR=yellow
       ...

PAGE=prodlinux/criticalprodlinux,prodwin/criticalprodwin,someotherpage
       ...
       COLOR=red
       ...

The red part works but the yellow doesn't.
Presumably because I am trying to do two regex in the PAGE line?

Thanks
Cade

Since you are using the pcre on the first one, replace the commas with '|'
(or).

e.g.:

PAGE=%prodlinux/.*|prodwin/.*|someotherpage

Note you only need the % at the beginning of the string.
