Info Page

This is not really a problem, just more of a question. I have rules defined for paging but when I click on the "Info" column for a given host, I see the following: No e-mail/SMS alerting defined I know it is defined because I get pages when something goes wrong. Any idea why this says this? One other piece of info...all my alerting rules use macros...does this matter? Thanks KEvin

Disk space alerts
by JamesHorwath＠glic.com 18 Feb '05

Does hobbit allow you to send disk space alerts to different people. For example if I have a data base machine, the sys admins would get the O/S type alerts, the DBA's get the database filesystem alerts, and the WEB developers would get the WEB filesystem alerts. This was always my big wish list from BB.

[hobbit] alert gifs

Frédéric Mangeant posted this on 2/8: -----Original Message----- From: Frédéric Mangeant [mailto:frederic.mangeant at steria.com] Sent: Tuesday, February 08, 2005 9:23 AM To: hobbit at hswn.dk; bb at bb4.com Subject: [hobbit] "recent" icons set Hi Henrik I'd like you to comment on a modification I made to bbgen, relative to the "recent" gifs set. By default, when using with "--recentgifs", a different icon is used if a page color is less than 24 hours old. I've modified loaddata.c to use the "recent" gifs set if a page color is less than 1 hour old; the modification is attached. Perhaps it would even be possible to include a new option : - "--recentgifs=1-day" to keep the current behavior - "--recentgifs=1-hour" - etc. Many thanks in advance.

Several people have asked for it, so I'm addding this as an option. You'll run bbgen with "--recentgifs=30m" to have them show up for only 30 minutes. Henrik

I've made a quick & dirty hack to display the recent gifs for the first hour, instead of 1 day; you will find it attached. Regards, -- Frédéric Mangeant

Is there anyway to change the amount of time that the 'recentgifs' are displayed? It would be much more useful in my setup if they could be set to only show up for the first 1/2 hour or so, and then turn into the normal gifs. Thanks, Larry Barber
