Hi
 
I have setup http test with contents check for 3-4 server simultaneously
for the same host & it worked fine. 
Now for one host we have more than 80 weblogic servers (per server one
process) running and I want to run http test for all. I can't do the
ports test as each server must have different port to run & I want to be
alerted with server name in the alert itself. If I use ports test then I
got alert only for ports service failure and not the alert with server
name failure. thoughts?
If I want to use contents check for all these then is there a nice way
to do it, as all the service can't even accomodate in the one line on
bb2.html against specific host. Please suggest.

I would suggesting using http URLs for tests rather then port checking.
I've seen time and time again where the TCP would establish a socket but
never transport data on many many things.

Hi Josh,
 
I also feel the same. But my problem is how can I accomodate so many
URLs for one host? and how I displayed each as service on hobbit web
page.Please suggest.
Henrik,
could you please provide your thought?

Instead of using the physical hostnames in bb-hosts, use the website
name instead. E.g.

   10.0.0.1   box1.foo.com  # 
   0.0.0.0    www1.foo.com  # cont;http://www1.foo.com/;Welcome.to.foo noconn
   0.0.0.0    www2.foo.com  # cont;http://www2.foo.com/;Hello,world noconn

or grouped any other way you like, so you have the physical box
monitored with all of the client data (cpu, memory, disk etc.) and then
the websites hosted on the box in other lines.
