Nodisp for a Page?

Are there any options for the bb-host file to not display an entire page
without having to comment everything under the page definition?

 
As remote sites are re-located, I would like to stop monitoring the
entire site and not have it show up in the Webpage.  Then, when it is
back online, resume monitoring.

Currently, the only way I can see to do this is to comment the entire
section of the bb-host file.  It would be nice to have a nodisp type
option to add or precede the "page" option to remove the entire page
from the system.

Thanks,

Mike

You could move each remote site definition to its own file and use 'include'
in the main bb-hosts file to bring them in.  Then all you'd need to do would
be to comment out the include for any given remote site.

Thanks Ralph.  Yes, I could do this, but it is easy to keep it all in
one file (for now).  It's a trade off. 

I was hoping I overlooked something, but I guess not.
