purple clients problem

I have a problem with clients turning purple after reboot. Client processes run, tmp/msg.txt is updated on client. Display shows GREEN on conn|info|trends, and PURPLE on the rest - cpu|disk|memory|procs. I set debug option on hobbit client in hobbitlaunch.cfg - but I don't quite understand output in clientdata.log: CMD hobbitd_channel --channel=client --log=$BBSERVERLOGS/clientdata.log --debug hobbitd_client from hobbitlaunch.log on the server ------ 2005-12-28 14:10:31 Task mrtg terminated, status 13 2005-12-28 14:14:21 hobbitlaunch starting 2005-12-28 14:14:21 Loading tasklist configuration from /opt/hobbit/server/etc/hobbitlaunch.cfg 2005-12-28 14:14:21 Loading hostnames 2005-12-28 14:14:21 Loading saved state 2005-12-28 14:14:21 Setting up network listener on 0.0.0.0:1984 2005-12-28 14:14:21 Setting up signal handlers 2005-12-28 14:14:21 Setting up hobbitd channels 2005-12-28 14:14:21 Setting up logfiles ERROR: writing /etc/mrtg.ok.ok: Permission denied at /usr/local/bin/../lib/mrtg2/MRTG_lib.pm line 1477. 2005-12-28 14:14:27 Task mrtg terminated, status 13 ERROR: writing /etc/mrtg.ok.ok: Permission denied at /usr/local/bin/../lib/mrtg2/MRTG_lib.pm line 1477. 2005-12-28 14:19:28 Task mrtg terminated, status 13 ------ from clientdata.log ------ 2005-12-28 14:14:11 Semaphore wait aborted: Interrupted system call 2005-12-28 14:14:26 Setting up client channel (id=7) 2005-12-28 14:14:26 calling ftok('/opt/hobbit/server',7) 2005-12-28 14:14:26 ftok() returns: 0x7004344 2005-12-28 14:14:26 shmget() returns: 0x1712 ----- What test should I make to find out what is wrong?

[hobbit] logic dependencies and combined to alerts

I have fping installed and my hobbit install had the --ping option for bbtest-net enabled by default in hobbitlaunch.cfg. Yes the way you have shown it will work. Status messages from downed hosts with route should then show what it relies on is down and report yellow. Why do you want clear? Surely it should still show a warning at these switches being down but the one in red being the main concern. There may be an option to change this colour to "clear" in hobbitserver.cfg, haven't checked though.
