Enable/Disable looks to propagate ok, but I've just tried to ack an alert on my primary hobbit server -- and the ack did not propagate to the secondary server. This is 4.2.0 with all the (as of yesterday :-) patches, running with '--no-pin'.
Question on BBDISPLAYS -- is this list supposed to be space delimited, comma-delimited, or does it not matter? Mine is space-delimited.

How does Hobbit handle the disabling of tests in a multi-DISPLAY server environment? Typically in the legacy Big Brother environment, I had to either disable test on each display server, or just tell people to ignore alerts on the satellite DISPLAYs and only pay attention to the main server where I would actually "blue" things out. Ultimately I would like to have an accurate view on each DISPLAY, but this would involve somehow propogating a disable command down the line.
The Hobbit enable/disable tool sends the enable/disable commands to all of the servers listed in the BBDISPLAYS setting in hobbitserver.cfg. So if you have that setup in your config, it will automatically propagate to all of the servers.
Note that when using multiple servers, it is recommended that you have the local server FIRST in the list of servers in BBDISPLAYS.
