Issue/Introduction:

A script object to check for availability of hosts in a hostgroup does not always return correct/expected result with PREP_PROCESS_AGENTGROUP
Example script paragraph: 

:SET &HND# = PREP_PROCESS_AGENTGROUP("&HOSTGROUP1#",,ALL)
:PROCESS &HND_SOAP#
: SET &STATUS# = GET_PROCESS_LINE(&HND_SOAP#,2)
: SET &HOST# = GET_PROCESS_LINE(&HND_SOAP#,1)
: P &HOST# &STATUS#
:ENDPROCESS
