RE: {bb} troubleshooting ext pg script

["Kimberly McKinnis" <kmckinnis@macrovision.com>]

That makes a lot of sense... I forgot about the commas. 

Unfortunately, forcing the red with that syntax is still not calling the
script. The script definitely works, as does the rule, because it's
running on natural purples and reds. But it would be nice to test it
when I make changes instead if crossing my fingers and hoping production
tests it for me. Bizarre.

Happy Halloween :)

You must use commas instead of dots in the hostname. 
./bb 10.230.19.84 "status lpc105,sjc,smokeblower,net.memory red `date`"
