[hobbit] Same host on multiple pages

[Gee Pee]

I divided our bunch of computers in several logical groups using one  
master bb-hosts-file, using (see bb-hosts-man page) include-files.  
The dispinclude (one word) could be read as "disp(lay) include". Now  
I have a page for each SLA (a page with Solaris, Linux, etc that  
build up a SLA), but I also have a view/page with the all Solaris- 
boxes only, Linux-boxes only etc..

The bbtest won't turn yellow anymore, if you have setup everything  
correctly using (disp)include:
"TAGS RECOGNIZED BY ALL TOOLS

include filename
This tag is used to include another file into the bb-hosts file at  
run-time, allowing for a large bb-hosts file to be split up into more  
manageable pieces.
The "filename" argument should point to a file that uses the same  
syntax as bb-hosts. The filename can be an absolute filename (if it  
begins with a '/'), or a relative filename - relative filenames are  
prefixed with the directory where the main bb-hosts file is located  
(usually $BBHOME/etc/).
You can nest include tags, i.e. a file that is included from the main  
bb-hosts file can itself include other files.

dispinclude filename
Acts like the "include" tag, but only on the BBDISPLAY server. Can be  
used e.g. to put a group of hosts on multiple subpages, without  
having to repeat the host definitions.

netinclude filename
Acts like the "include" tag, but only on the BBNET server.
