[hobbit] Hobbit Program

[rdeal]

Some server side scripts that get a list of tests from the files via  grep
can be changed from something like this:
$GREP snmp $BBHOME/etc/bb-hosts | grep -v "^#" |

To something like this:
$BBHOME/bin/bbhostgrep --bbnet --no-down snmp |

All,
 
I seem recall reading about a program within Hobbit that can be called from
external scripts to poll the status of a client before the execution of a
script.  Basically if the client is down then the external script would be
written that it simply reports clear or whatever status color is warranted
without having to go through some alternative method of checking for client
availability before execution.
 
I looked through the documentation and didn¹t see it in there, but swear
that I have seen something like this before.
 
Any ideas?
 
Thanks,
Robert
