Mulitple host definition in bb-hosts

Hello, 

 

When you define a host multiple times in the bb-hosts file, bbtest gives
a warning about strange results.  What I want to do is have a display
page with separate sections, two of which will be labeled AIX and
Critical Systems.  One of the AIX servers is also a Critical System, and
would be included in both sections, and thus be listed in the hosts file
twice.  I'll be using the prefer tag on the entry in the AIX section.

 

I've been testing it for about a day now, and it doesn't appear to do
anything but turn bbtest yellow.  Is there any serious repercussion to
this?  If not, is there a way to tell bbtest to ignore duplicate entries
so that it doesn't turn yellow?

 

Thanks
