[hobbit] Xymon crash after adding too many hosts?

[e-mail j.sansford]

Sure, they are in 3 different configuration files which are included in the
main bb-hosts file. Also note that they are currently commented out due to
it causing the issue!:


h1.conf:
#subpage memcached Memcached
#10.6.73.1 h1-mem01     # NET:H1 ping ssh
#10.6.73.2 h1-mem02     # NET:H1 ping ssh
#10.6.73.3 h1-mem03     # NET:H1 ping ssh
#10.6.73.4 h1-mem04     # NET:H1 ping ssh

h2.conf:
#subpage memcached Memcached
#10.7.73.1 h2-mem01      # NET:H2 ping ssh
#10.7.73.2 h2-mem02      # NET:H2 ping ssh
#10.7.73.3 h2-mem03      # NET:H2 ping ssh
#10.7.73.4 h2-mem04      # NET:H2 ping ssh

h3.conf:
#subpage memcached Memcached
#10.8.73.1 h2-mem01      # NET:H3 ping ssh
#10.8.73.2 h2-mem02      # NET:H3 ping ssh
#10.8.73.3 h2-mem03      # NET:H3 ping ssh
#10.8.73.4 h2-mem04      # NET:H3 ping ssh


(I thought there were 15 new hosts, but it looks like there are only 12). I
can't see any syntax issues here?
