I was curious if the hobbit-clients.cfg honored include directives. The reason 
I ask, is that our standard for defining LA thresholds is based on the 
numbers of CPUs. I edited my client's hobbitclient-<os>.sh to add a new 
section, [cpucount]. I figured I could write a server side script that could 
process that data & set the correct threshold accordingly. I just don't want 
to write a script that writes directly to the etc/hobbitclients.cfg file, and 
prefer writing to an external file that I can then include.

So far only my linux & sun servers have the cpucount section, and these are 
the commands I used:
Linux:
$GREP processor /proc/cpuinfo | $WC
SunOS:
/usr/sbin/psrinfo -p
