Glad to know I am not the only one has this need. I am using following work-around solution(IMHO) for now.
HOST=%(a|b).com PROC sendmail 1 -1 red PROC cron 1 -1 red
HOST=%(b1|b2).com PROC syslog 1 -1 red PROC cron 1 -1 red

I am looking for following MACRO(R1) syntax to work in hobbit-client.cfg beside hobbit-alerts.cfg
$A=a.com|b.com PROC sendmail 1 -1 red $B=b1.com|b2.com PROC syslog 1 -1 red $ALL=$A|$B PROC cron 1 -1 red
So all 4 machines will have cron process monitored beside group A have sendmail and group B have syslog processes monitored.
Is above syntax supported in hobbit-client.cfg ?
I asked this same question awhile back and never received an answer, but I tries a couple different ways and never could get it to work.
------------my original post------------- Can the same technique used in the hobbit-alerts.cfg for defining a group of hosts be used in the hobbit-clients.cfg? Example:
$HG_NOTES=(athena|ids|isis).foo.com
HOST=%$HG_NOTES PROC notes TRACK=notes "TEXT=Lotus Notes"
