[hobbit] Net:Location appears not to work?

[Tod Hansmann]

Also, I don't know if it matters, but the NET is Net in our config and
works fine.  Case may or may not matter.

Have you set the BBLOCATION variable in either hobbitserver.cfg or in
hobbitlaunch.cfg on each server?

Thanks,

I have three servers

tools-www-01 (hobbitd server, BBDISPLAY BBNET BBPAGER)
tools-pol-03 (Big Brother BBNET)
tools-pol-04 (Big Brother BBNET)

on tools-www-01 I have several hosts that are failing the conn test
from 
tools-www-01 and paging me
the problem is, tools-www-01 should not be testing these hosts from my
understanding of the tags in the bb-hosts file

bb-hosts on tools-www-01:

10.10.9.9      tools-www-01.domain.com # BBDISPLAY BBNET BBPAGER
NET:tools-pol-03.domain.com
10.10.10.10    hostname-prov-db-02.domain.com #
NET:tools-pol-04.domain.com


>From what I gather, prov-db-02 should only be tested from dev-pol-04
(and 
that connection is successful)

What I am getting is constant "flaps" of it being up/down/up/down   -
when I
get the down page, the failure source is tools-www-01, not tools-pol-04.
When tools-pol-04 sends green it recovers 


Am I not using locations correctly? Or is there something more for me to
look at?
