Hi,
I did this when I bulk added hosts (note: pwd = /opt/observium):
1) File named "addhost.sh", chmod +x it of course.
#!/bin/bash echo "Adding: $1" ./addhost.php $1 communityhere v2c ./discovery.php -h $1 ./poller.php -h $1
2) file named "newhosts", which contains each host on a new line.
3) Loop through "newhosts", adding each host etc..
for HOST in `cat newhosts`; do ./addhost.sh $HOST; sleep 5; done | tee /tmp/observium-addhost.log
Check "/tmp/observium-addhost.log" later on if there's any dramas.
Cheers, Matt.

Chris, your script is functionally identical to David's. Changing
variables to upper case and leaving out the quotes will make no difference.
Quotes do make a difference when there is a space in the file. Because of the quotes it will become part of the hostname.
David, can you ping the given host by name? That message means that
the name lookup (whether using the local hosts file or DNS) failed.

Your bash loop syntax is likely the culprit.
If you have your devices/nodes listed in a text file, I'd iterate
like so:
for NODE in `cat textfile.txt`; do ./addhost.php $NODE community
v2c; done
