The alert failover is different, because Hobbit doesn't have a separate BBPAGER server - alerts are sent from the same host that handles the Hobbit data collection and webpages. A solution to this has been implemented for the next release, where the alerting module can be distributed onto multiple servers, but only one of them will send alerts at any given time.
Could you elaborate on this alerting module configuration, or point me to TFM? If it has indeed been implemented, it sounds like it would be the key to enabling hobbit to emulate the big brother style alerting failover behavior.
