I have a set of hosts that are not availabled via the conn test. I
attempted to disable the conn test for each by adding noconn after #
in the bb-hots file. However, the conn test column still shows up and
the conn test shows a red status until eventually the status changes
to purple. Am I missing something with the steps to disable a conn
test for a host?
If you don't disable it from the start, you'll have to "drop" the test
after you disable it. So run
   ~bb/server/bin/bb 127.0.0.1 "drop HOSTNAME conn"

Alternatively, you can use "noping" instead of "noconn", which will
make the "conn" column show a "clear" - i.e. "no data" - status
instead of purple.
