If you can have a standard host name convention, then you could use a
regex.

But, IMHO, the threshold should be dependant more on the number of 
CPUs, rather than on the architecture. For example, we have a higher 
threshold on our X4600s (8 physical, dual core) than our X4100s/X4200s
(2 physical, some dual-core).

How many CPUs does the Sun T2000 have/report ?
I believe the T2000s report 32 processors, in reality there is only 1. 1
x 8 cores x 4 concurrent threads capable.

But for all our devices we normally set our LA thresholds by the
folowing
formula:

Warn:  #CPU x 1
Panic: #CPU x 1.5

My hobbit-clients.cfg would be alot smaller if in the default section,
if I could use a formula definition for LOAD instead of a hardcoded
section.
Instead of defining runqueue threshhold per host name, it would be nice
to
have a ARCH option which could be overridden by the HOST
You could hardcode the client's CLASS option to it's arch, and be able
to do what you propose.
