How about
exhost=%server.(test.com|abc.intra)

The server names are actually different. so it's server1.test.com
<http://server1.test.com>; server2.abc.intra and another server doesn't
have a domain name specified.  Any other ideas?

Could someone let me know how I can use 2 different domain names
    when
excluding hosts in the hobbit-alerts.cfg?  Example:
exhost=%(server).test.com %(server).abc.intra.  I tried to use a
    comma and
space between the 2 domain names but it isn't taking it.

    How about
    exhost=%server.(test.com|abc.intra)

The host names are separated by commas.  Here is our rule, but it uses a
macro.

$HOSTS_EXCLUDED=server1.test.com,server2.abc.intra

EXHOST=$HOSTS_EXCLUDED EXSERVICE=$SERVICES_EXCLUDED COLOR=red
       IGNORE HOST=* SERVICE=%(tl1am|^se$) TIME=*:0200:1200

Perhaps make sure there are no spaces after the commas or equals sign?
Looking at Henrik's example, I suppose EXHOST is not case sensitive,
although ours is all uppercase.

Run this to make sure your config looks ok:

bin/bbcmd hobbitd_alert --dump-config
