[hobbit] Critical Systems ACK vs "regular" ACK
by gumby3203＠gmail.com 02 Oct '07

02 Oct '07

I've noticed that when you ACK an alert from anywhere other than the Critical Systems page, the ACK doesn't carry over, and you have to ACK it again from there. We have trained our Operations group to use the C.S. page, so we sometimes get alerted from them about stuff we have already ack'ed. Also, acking from the C.S. page doesn't stop the alerts from being sent out. Is there any way to tie these two systems together, perhaps for this upcoming release? Or is there a reason they are separate?

CLASS=classname doesnt seem to work in hobbit-client
by jerome＠eteve.net 02 Oct '07

02 Oct '07

Hi Hobbit users ! I've got 20 hosts for which I setted up a CLASS:myclass in the bb-host file. : IP myhost.mydomain.com # CLASS:myclass This settings appears on the info page for each of them (in Other tags), so I guess it's ok. I'm trying now to monitor processes who should run on those servers by having a section like that in the hobbit-client.cfg file. CLASS=myclass PROC myproc 1 16 PROC myproc2 1 16 But it doesn't work (the proc test doen't include those processes. I restarted hobbit server and waited for 20 minuts without results. Am I missing something ? Thanks for your help ! Jerome. -- Jerome Eteve. jerome at eteve.net http://jerome.eteve.free.fr/

Securing hobbit
by akincaid＠beckautogroup.com 01 Oct '07

01 Oct '07

Hi, we have been setting up hobbit for our company over the last couple of weeks and it is a brilliant product! We were originally planning on allowing anyone within the company to see the pages, but now we have been asked to limit access to each department head and the department heads can only see the results for equipment in their department. We have divided the bb-hosts file up using the PAGE function, but wanted to know if there is a way to explicitly allow one or two people to see the page for a specific department. We also want to publish the site and use authentication to get to it, what is the best way to meet both these goals?

Hobbit setup after Catastrophic failure
by david＠stenhouseconsulting.com 01 Oct '07

01 Oct '07

I recently had a catastrophic failure of my hobbit box. I have rebuilt the box, installed FC6, installed hobbit, and have restored hobbit files from backup. I have started the hobbit script and restarted it after fixing some permissions issues caused by the restore, mostly missing rwx on subfolders and files. Currently Apache is serving the pages, but the data is stale and does not appear to be updating. Any suggestions? I have been looking at this for about two hours and my brain is numb.

dns test configuration
by emarganne＠be.tiauto.com 01 Oct '07

01 Oct '07

Hello all, I have a question concerning DNS test time configuration. On my network there are some DNS servers which respond hardly due to the quality of the line, and those have problems with the DNS test going red. I think it could be a matter of time-outs. However I do not really understand, what are the different configuration values, one can use to fix it up. If someone can explain me the logic of the thing, I would be pleased.
