I've asked before and I've looked in the archives... I applied a patch from Henrik about non-blocking sockets that I was given last time I asked, but I'm still getting these errors...

Alert HOST + EXHOST rules not working correctly
by gumby3203＠gmail.com 27 Mar '08

27 Mar '08

I must be missing something stupid as I've been staring at this and can't figure out what's wrong. I have the following alert rules set up: HOST=%(.*-stag-.*) EXHOST=%^(marketing-stag-.*) EXHOST=%^(infra-stag-.*) TIME=*:0800:2100 RECOVERED DURATION>11m SCRIPT $SMSPLUS $WLI_STAGMAN_EMAIL REPEAT=1h HOST=%^(marketing-stag-.*) TIME=*:0800:2100 RECOVERED SCRIPT $SMSPLUS $WLI_MKT_STAG_EMAIL REPEAT=1h HOST=%^(infra-stag-.*) TIME=*:0800:2100 RECOVERED SCRIPT $SMSPLUS $WLI_INFRA_STAG_EMAIL REPEAT=1h The problem is that the EXHOST doesn't appear to be working the way I expect it to. When I do a hobbitd_alert --test on "marketing-stag-1", it shows the first HOST line (the one with the EXHOSTs) as matching and alerting. $> bbcmd hobbitd_alert --test marketing-stag-1 Managed-Server --duration=800 . . . 12:50:51 Matching host:service:page 'marketing-stag-1:Managed-Server:wblx-staging' against rule line 388 12:50:51 *** Match with 'HOST=$WLI_MANAGED_STAG EXHOST=$WLI_MKTING_STAG EXHOST=$WLI_INFRA_STAG TIME=*:0800:2100 RECOVERED DURATION>11m' *** 12:50:51 Matching host:service:page 'marketing-stag-1:Managed-Server:wblx-staging' against rule line 388 12:50:51 *** Match with 'HOST=$WLI_MANAGED_STAG EXHOST=$WLI_MKTING_STAG EXHOST=$WLI_INFRA_STAG TIME=*:0800:2100 RECOVERED DURATION>11m' *** 12:50:51 Script alert with command '/var/hobbit/server/ext/smsplus' and recipient abc at mydomain.com 12:50:51 Matching host:service:page 'marketing-stag-1:Managed-Server:wblx-staging' against rule line 390 12:50:51 *** Match with 'HOST=$WLI_MKTING_STAG TIME=*:0800:2100 RECOVERED' *** 12:50:51 Matching host:service:page 'marketing-stag-1:Managed-Server:wblx-staging' against rule line 390 12:50:51 *** Match with 'HOST=$WLI_MKTING_STAG TIME=*:0800:2100 RECOVERED' *** 12:50:51 Script alert with command '/var/hobbit/server/ext/smsplus' and recipient def at mydomain.com 12:50:51 Matching host:service:page 'marketing-stag-1:Managed-Server:wblx-staging' against rule line 392 12:50:51 Failed 'HOST=$WLI_INFRA_STAG TIME=*:0800:2100 RECOVERED' (hostname not in include list) . . . I've tried the regex with and without the "^", and it doesn't seem to have an effect. Any ideas what I'm missing? Without the "--duration=800", the first HOST line doesn't match (as expected).

error in hobbitsvc.c?
by Dirk.Kastens＠uni-osnabrueck.de 27 Mar '08

27 Mar '08

Hi, I just looked through the code of the latest snapshot. I'm not a C-programmer, but aren't there some brackets missing on line 342: modifiers = (items[19] && *(items[19])) ? items[19] : NULL; Shouldn't this be: modifiers = ((items[19] && *(items[19])) ? items[19] : NULL); Just an idea -- Regards, Dirk Kastens Universitaet Osnabrueck, Rechenzentrum (Computer Center) Albrechtstr. 28, 49069 Osnabrueck, Germany Tel.: +49-541-969-2347, FAX: -2470

SMS over analog modem
by Rafal.Roginela＠AmeriCashLoans.net 27 Mar '08

27 Mar '08

Hi all, I'm very ignorant in terms of (well... everything ;) SMS so I have some questions: 1. Is it possible to send SMS over analog modem? 2. What software I would use to do this? (Howto, samples?) 3. Does anyone else use this type of setup with Hobbit? 4. Maybe I'm just totally off base and there is a better solution for getting alerts when my Internet access is down? As always Thank you ahead of time for your consideration. And great job, this software gets better and better as I learn more about it. Thank You, Rafal Roginela

Patch for static holidays with year
by dddugan＠iastate.edu 27 Mar '08

27 Mar '08

Attached is a rudimentary patch to lib/holidays.h and lib/holidays.c which allows you to optionally specify a year on static holiday entries. (Anything not in the current year is simply ignored.) We needed this type of functionality for organization-chosen floating holidays. For example we get two days for Christmas, but which days vary. (This year 12/25, 12/26...next year 12/24, 12/25...then 12/23, 12/24...12/23, 12/26, etc.) I'm certainly open to better solutions, but this appears to work-sample holidays for this year show up on info screens...samples for other years are ignored. Cheers. Darin Dugan dddugan at iastate.edu
