conn=worst problem
by peterjakobs＠myrealbox.com 20 Apr '06

20 Apr '06

Hobbit Monitor 4.2-alfa-20060416 If I use the conn=worst,ipaddr in the bb-hosts file, If both addresses are not reachable, the rest of the ip tests (ntp ldap dns) continue to be tested and continue to be RED. If I don't use the conn=worst, they get clear. Is this the right behavior? I suspected (and also prefer) them to go clear if both ip's are not reachable. Peter Jakobs

[hobbit] query on reporting.
by subhash.gada＠logicacmg.com 18 Apr '06

Hi, Is there any way that we can generate a custom desired reports? Example: 1) Report of all red view of all the hosts in a page for disk test. 2) Daily report of all red of a page. 3) Report of all red of a page if the red is greater that 10 days. -----Original Message----- From: Henrik Stoerner [mailto:henrik at hswn.dk] Sent: Wednesday, April 05, 2006 11:23 AM To: hobbit at hswn.dk Subject: Re: [hobbit] query on reporting.

There isn't a ready-to-go report on all non-green statuses for hosts on a particular page. The "All non-green" view includes all hosts in the system. It wouldn't be difficult to do, but noone has asked for this before.

I've had a look through the code and can only find an entry in libtool for the c-ares library would like to adjust this up a bit so that we don't get the oversized messages, yes the server that we are getting these from is one of our busier ones. Latest errormessages: Oversize status msg from x.x.x.x for server:procs truncated (n=264850, limit=262144) Ta Mike Rowell ________________________________________________________________________ This email has been scanned for all viruses by the MessageLabs service. ________________________________________________________________________

rrd-status.log errors and df output of SunOS client
by Dominique.Frise＠unil.ch 18 Apr '06

18 Apr '06

Hi, Our rrd-status.log is filled with errors like: 2006-04-18 10:50:39 RRD error updating /soft/pub/BB/hobbit/data/rrd/host1/disk,swap.rrd from 1.2.3.4: illegal attempt to update using time 1145350239 when last update time is 1145350239 (minimum one second step) ----corresponding client data---- [df] Filesystem kbytes used avail capacity Mounted on nfs:/soft/lic/sun 10317828 8199048 1594664 84% /soft/lic/sun swap 17835128 64 17835064 1% /var/run swap 3145728 4624 3141104 1% /tmp /dev/md/dsk/d0 5046030 4150823 844747 84% / /dev/md/dsk/d3 25215720 5327869 19635694 22% /var /dev/md/dsk/d4 15128715 9697901 5279527 65% /usr/local ---------------------------------- The two swap entries (/tmp and /var/run) are probably creating this problem? If this is the case /var/run should be excluded from the df output in hobbitclient-sunos.sh The mounted file system (nfs) should also be excluded (use -l option of df) Under Solaris 10, following FS types should additionaly be excluded: ctfs - contract file system The ctfs filesystem is the interface to the contract sub- system. ctfs is mounted during boot at /system/contract. For information on contracts and the contents of this filesys- tem, see contract(4). devfs - Devices file system The devfs filesystem manages a name space of all devices under the Solaris operating environment and is mounted dur- ing boot on the /devices name space. The /devices name space is dynamic and reflects the current state of accessible devices under the Solaris operating environment. The names of all attached device instances are present under /devices. The content under /devices is under the exclusive control of the devfs filesystem and cannot be changed. objfs - Kernel object filesystem The objfs filesystem describes the state of all modules currently loaded by the kernel. It is mounted during boot at /system/object. The contents of the filesystem are dynamic and reflect the current state of the system. Each module is represented by a directory containing a single file, 'object.' The object file is a read only ELF file which contains information about the object loaded in the kernel. Dominique
