Suggestion to move html version of manpages to doc directory
by tj_yang＠hotmail.com 24 May '05

24 May '05

After installation of hobbit(4.0.3) , I found the man directory contains the html version of man page. Can we make html version install into docs diretory under hobbit ? and have the real man page in man directory. tj bash-2.05b# ls bin man server bash-2.05b# ls man/man1/ bb.1.html bb-findhost.cgi.1.html bbretest-net.sh.1.html bb-ack.cgi.1.html bbgen.1.html bb-snapshot.cgi.1.html bbcmd.1.html bb-hist.cgi.1.html bbtest-net.1.html bbcombotest.1.html bbhostgrep.1.html bb-webpage.1.html bb-csvinfo.cgi.1.html bbhostshow.1.html hobbitgraph.cgi.1.html bb-datepage.cgi.1.html bbmessage.cgi.1.html hobbitsvc.cgi.1.html bbdigest.1.html bb-rep.cgi.1.html bb-eventlog.cgi.1.html bb-replog.cgi.1.html bash-2.05b# head man/man1/bb.1.html <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN"> T.J.

[hobbit] Changing default graph resolution

Hmmm That's pretty much what I tried earlier (with a few lines in different order), and it didn't work. I get the first (less populated) graph, but not the second. :-( Should this work with a bb client, or is it essential that I use a hobbit client?

citirx user graph

What script is used to generate the data for the citrix user graph that is defined in hobbit? It doesn't seem to be using the bb-citrix.pl script on deadcat. Thanks

Hi Henrik Thanks for your prompt reply. I was only looking at the ora9-sga page, but just went to have a peek at the trends page. No oracle graphs. But then there never has been. :-( This might be relevant, it might not, but my iostat graphs are also empty. It prints the graph, and shows the cur/min/avg/max info very nicely, but no data plot lines. Others, like memory and vmstat look magic.

I admit - they should be identical, but for various reasons the LARRD:... setting is only used on the "trends" page. > Should this work with a bb client, or is it essential that I use a > hobbit client? This is purely a server-side thing, so as long as you run Hobbit on the server side, it should work.

Hello - When a graph for any of the tests are shown, the default scale is 48 hours, however the user can zoom in on this graph to show a different time scale. Is there a way to change the default for specific graphs from the 48 hours to 8 or 12 hours? -- --==[ Bob Gordon ]==--

Missing history display
by gsteer＠firstwave.com.au 24 May '05

I upgraded to 4.0.3 last night. All seems well except that I cannot access any history. When I click on the History button on any server/service, I get 'Status not available' It was working prior to the update and still works on a 4.0.2 installation - both are running with data supplied via bbproxy running on a BB server.

Question -> external scripts
by Alexander.Sprotte＠eventim.de 23 May '05

23 May '05

Hi all at hobbit, I have 3 very small questions: 1. I use the mailq.sh ( I have add the requests keyword) script from deadcat.net but the LARRD graph will only shown 3 request on the queue but there are 203 reported form the script. Mon May 23 16:40:01 CEST 2005, 203 requests If the status change to 200 requests, the LAARD will report 3 Mails on Queue... :-( is 3 the max on this graph? 2. I'm looking for an external vmstat script like this: http://www.hswn.dk/hobbit-cgi/bb-hostsvc.sh?HOSTSVC=www,sslug,dk.vmstat& IP=130.228.2.150&DISPLAYNAME=www.sslug.dk 3. There is another webside than deadcat.net for Hobbit or BB scripts? Regards Alexander Sprotte [mailto:alexander.sprotte at eventim.de]

I'm not sure if this is related or not, but I can't enable/disable from the info page. When I hit the "apply" button, I get this error: The requested URL /hobbit-cgi/(null)/hobbit-enadis.sh was not found on this server. Possibly a config setting I've missed? I'm running FC3 and upgraded w/ the 4.0.3 RPM.
