You can always get one to lie by altering runclient.sh on one of them
(alter MACHINEDOTS="uname -n" to something like
MACHINEDOTS="test_uname -n"), though I'm confused how they are running
on the network together if they have the exact same hostname...

Is there an easy way to monitor 2 servers with the same computername using 1 hobbit server? We are monitoring both our production enviroment and test environments. Unfortunately the computername in test or prod cannot be changed.
They must have different names in the bb-hosts file, or Hobbit will not be able to distinguish between them. So you need to make up a pseudo hostname for at least one of them.
For the client data (assuming you have a Hobbit client on them), you can modify the hostname it uses to report data and make sure it matches the name you use in bb-hosts.
