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.

Hi Hobbit users, I create à custom monitor script to check lm-sensors temperatures from Linux boxes named "sensors" the data are sent by the remote client as: CPU-1 Tmp : 21.88 Brd Tmp : 19.12 CPU-2 Tmp : 22.38 > 17 reached! (Warnlevel Yellow) To respect the name-colon-value formatted report This is well displayed on the machine's monitor page and the alerts are sent by mail as well, but the graph is not create in monitor and trends page. I put on server in hobbitserver.cfg TEST2RRD="cpu=la,...,sensors=ncv GRAPHS="...,ncv,...,sensors NCV_sensors="*:GAUGE" The sensors.rrd dump give: <rrd> <version> 0003 </version> <step> 300 </step>  <lastupdate> 1191248506 </lastupdate>  <ds> <name> CPU1Tmp </name> <type> GAUGE </type> <minimal_heartbeat> 600 </minimal_heartbeat> <min> 0.0000000000e+00 </min> <max> NaN </max>  <last_ds> UNKN </last_ds> <value> 2.2662800000e+03 </value> <unknown_sec> 0 </unknown_sec> </ds> <ds> <name> BrdTmp </name> <type> GAUGE </type> <minimal_heartbeat> 600 </minimal_heartbeat> <min> 0.0000000000e+00 </min> <max> NaN </max>  <last_ds> UNKN </last_ds> <value> 2.0797200000e+03 </value> <unknown_sec> 0 </unknown_sec> </ds> <ds> <name> CPU2Tmp </name> <type> GAUGE </type> <minimal_heartbeat> 600 </minimal_heartbeat> <min> 0.0000000000e+00 </min> <max> NaN </max>  <last_ds> UNKN </last_ds> <value> 2.3722800000e+03 </value> <unknown_sec> 0 </unknown_sec> </ds> [...] And in the hobbitgraph.cfg I have: [sensors] FNPATTERN sensors.(.+).rrd TITLE Temperature YAXIS Celsius DEF:p at RRDIDX@=@RRDFN@:temperature:AVERAGE LINE2:p at RRDIDX@#@COLOR@:@RRDPARAM@ GPRINT:p at RRDIDX@:LAST: \: %5.1lf (cur) GPRINT:p at RRDIDX@:MAX: \: %5.1lf (max) GPRINT:p at RRDIDX@:MIN: \: %5.1lf (min) GPRINT:p at RRDIDX@:AVERAGE: \: %5.1lf (avg)\n What I have missed ?

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.

Hobbit in Debian
by myon＠debian.org 01 Oct '07

01 Oct '07

Hi, so weeks ago I started looking into hobbit since one of my company's customers is using it. Of course the fact that it wasn't included in Debian so far was nagging me, so I took the packages from sf.net, used Henrik's debian/ dir as base for mine, and uploaded the packages. http://packages.qa.debian.org/h/hobbit.html Of course there's probably bugs in the packaging, so comments would be very welcome. The original packaging was already very usable, so many thanks for the great work. There's also a hobbit-plugins package, but so far it only contains 2 plugins (an "apt" check, and a related check for upgraded libs still linked to running processes). http://packages.qa.debian.org/h/hobbit-plugins.html

Client for NetApp storage and Weblogic Server
by fduranti＠q8.it 01 Oct '07

01 Oct '07

Hi all, I'm currently developing 3 perl client to use with Network appliance Storage, Weblogic Servers and Database (SQL/Oracle/Informix and Mysql). At this moment only the weblogic and netapp scripts are available, the database check for Oracle/Informix and with connection check to sqlserver will be probably available the next week. I uploaded the scripts to deadcat but i got some problems downloading them so I've also created a project on sourceforge and I'm uploading the scripts there (and I will also try to create a mailing list so that if users have the need to contact me they can do that there). The homepage on sourceforge is http://sourceforge.net/projects/hobbit-perl-cl/ <BLOCKED::http://sourceforge.net/projects/hobbit-perl-cl/> Thanks and sorry for the advertise but this seems the better place to let users know about hobbit clients available :D Regards Francesco Duranti
