The man-page states:
"dispinclude filename
Acts like the "include" tag, but only on the BBDISPLAY server. Can
be used e.g. to put a group of hosts on multiple subpages, without
having to repeat the host definitions."
So you could set up your bb-hosts-file as follows for two (or more) views:
1 - SLA's (fi. SLA_XXX and SLA_YYY) and
2 - System views (Solaris, Linux, Windows...).
Example bb-hosts-file:
title Your Company
page SLA SLA
title SLA - Your Company
subpage SLA_XXX SLA_XXX
title SLA_XXX: Unix - Solaris
include bb-hosts-solaris-SLA_XXX.txt
title SLA_XXX: Unix - Linux
include bb-hosts-linux-SLA_XXX.txt
subpage SLA_XXX SLA_YYY
title SLA_YYY: Unix - Solaris
include bb-hosts-solaris-SLA_YYY.txt
title SLA_YYY: Unix - Linux
include bb-hosts-linux-SLA_YYY.txt
[snip]
page SYSTEM System
title Systems - Your Company
subpage SOLARIS Solaris
title Solaris-systems
dispinclude Include/bb-hosts-solaris-SLA_XXX.txt
dispinclude Include/bb-hosts-solaris-SLA_YYY.txt
...
subpage LINUX Linux
title Linux-systems
dispinclude Include/bb-hosts-linux-SLA_XXX.txt
dispinclude Include/bb-hosts-linux-SLA_YYY.txt
...

Mind the include of dispinclude-setting when you start making the new
view. Although I'm not sure wether Henrik's previous suggestion is
compulsory, it works for us. Hope this helps.

2006/1/24, Jeff Newman <user-e96740e73ca8@xymon.invalid>:I tried this, but I don't think my implementation was correct.
How I have it now is my bb-hosts has:
dispinclude bb-hosts.all
include bb-hosts.subs
That way I can see an "all" view, or the servers broken into categories.
I define each host in the bb-hosts.all and bb-hosts.subs
In the "subs" page, I tried setting all of the IP's to 0.0.0.0 and putting
#noconn
at the end, and shortly after, everything on both pages went purple, so
Im not sure if the way I am approaching it is wrong or what.

If you just want these hosts displayed on two (or more) pages, you
should have *one* place where you define them normally with all of the
various network tests you perform; and all other places you must have
them defined with
0.0.0.0 host1.foo.com # noconn
Hobbit will use the first (master) definition for all of the network
tests and other settings; in all of the other places it will
automatically copy the results and displays from the master definition.
