for some systems some services are listed multiple times in the alerting
table on the info page. E.g. conn and cpu are listed three times but
http is listed only once. Though there is no different alerting
configuration for the different services.

Could you try running the command
   bb 127.0.0.1 "hobbitdboard host=HOSTNAME test=conn fields=hostname,testname,color"

for one of those hosts ? It should print out just a single line - if there
are multiple lines that would be an error.

I've seen it happen on rare occasions, but haven't been able to track
it down yet. It's one of those 'this cannot happen' things.

thanks for your response.

This problem seems to be simple problem when matching the hostname:

# bb 127.0.0.1 "hobbitdboard host=manager test=conn fields=hostname,testname,color"
manager|conn|green
managereval|conn|green
managertest|conn|green

This should be fixed already in the 4.2.2 RC1 - it wraps the hostname
in "^...$" regex anchors so it should get data only from the exact
hostname. In other words, it now queries using

bb 127.0.0.1 'hobbitdboard host=^manager$ test=conn fields=hostname,testname,color'

which should return only a single host.

It would be nice if you could verify that 4.2.2-RC1 fixes this. If
you're reluctant to update all of your system to the RC, you can try
just compiling it and then copy the web/hobbitsvc.cgi binary to your
current ~hobbit/server/bin/ directory.
