I am getting ready to set up a multi-master environment, making what up until now was simply another 
server feeding client data to the primary server, into a second primary server. Currently the 
secondary has none of the data on which tests are disabled. I need to know how to merge this 
information from the primary to the secondary, without corrupting the existing checkpoint data.
I tried a test, copying one of the "blue" lines from the primary hobbitd.chk file into the 
secondary, but it had some weird results. It showed a completely different server and test as 
disabled on the Enda/dis page, so it looks like the order of the lines in the file may be a requirement?
If I simply copy the entire alert.chk and hobbitd.chk files from primary to secondary and restart, 
will this work or have any adverse consequences on the secondary?
The current setup is:
Primary <---- Secondary
    ^              ^
    |              |
    |              |
  Prime        Secondary
