in my case I have

GROUP=data-team-email
                dataemail at work.com
GROUP=data-team-page
                pager at work.com

so for some data partitions
I need them to be alerted by both email and pager.
So I should configure my hobbit-client.cfg
as
HOST=dataserver.work.com
        /export 95 99 GROUP=data-team-email,data-team-page

Thanks for the clarification,
