If you can have a standard host name convention, then you could use a
regex.

I believe the T2000s report 32 processors, in reality there is only 1. 1
x 8 cores x 4 concurrent threads capable.

But for all our devices we normally set our LA thresholds by the
folowing
formula:

Warn:  #CPU x 1
Panic: #CPU x 1.5

My hobbit-clients.cfg would be alot smaller if in the default section,
if I could use a formula definition for LOAD instead of a hardcoded
section.

You could hardcode the client's CLASS option to it's arch, and be able
to do what you propose.
