With this hobbit naming issue coming up it looks like I asked a question at
the wrong time. ;)
This may be much easier. could somebody cut'n'paste part of their
hobbit-alerts.cfg here that uses email for alerts. If you have some with
subpages that would be most excellent.
Thanks and everyone have a great weekend!

Subject: [hobbit] Alerts Help
I just cannot figure how to set up alerts.
Maybe I can save you lots of reading. All I am trying to do at this time I
am just looking to set up basic paging to an email (list) address.
I will want to break it down to subpages for fabric servers, DB servers, web
servers and weblogic server.
But. here is what I am working with now. For now I have, or so I thought,
narrowed it down to the most basic of configuration and still cannot get it
to work.
hobbit-alerts.cfg (added to the bottom of the file).
HOST=*
MAIL root at localhost SERVICE=conn color=yellow
MAIL root at localhost SERVICE=cONN color=red
MAIL root at localhost SERVICE=conn color=purple
When I run bbcmd with just --test I get the following:
[root at tstfabric121 etc]# ../bin/bbcmd hobbitd_alert --test
tstfabric121.ce.fedex.com procs
2008-07-31 16:48:03 Using default environment file

With --debug too I get this:
[root at tstfabric121 etc]# ../bin/bbcmd hobbitd_alert --test --debug
tstfabric121.ce.fedex.com procs
2008-07-31 16:48:43 Using default environment file

Now the host, tstfabric121.ce.fedex.com, is in the bb-host file. And, in
fact, is the hobbit server.
Also, so long as I am burning bandwidth, I am not understanding how the
page/subpage work into this? I do have subpage's set up in my bb-hosts
file.
Thanks.
