I have the following in my hobbit-clients.cfg file.

I do not have an individual HOST line for the server in question, but it
comes back red with the below on this particular server.  

red /cdrom/sol_10_509_sparc (100% used) has reached the PANIC level
(95%)
Any idea why this might be happening.  I have these same lines on some
specific HOSTS in the file and they work fine, but I wanted to switch it
to
the DEFAULT and doesn't seem to want to work for me.

It is generally not a good idea to put such rules in the DEFAULT section;
it really is meant only for setting the default thresholds.

Instead, put these in a "HOST=*" section right above the DEFAULT section.
