Additional Tests - iostat, top, losf
by jkwade＠futurefrontiers.com 08 Dec '06

08 Dec '06

I am looking to implement some other tests, and I was wondering if anyone had done these or if Hobbit can do them: 1) IOSTAT: I need to start tracking iostat of disk,nfs i/o. Will hobbit do this or has anyone written anything to do this. As an example, iostat -xtn 5 5 (Solaris) 2) TOP: Also, has anyone done anything with the multicpu top command? I'd like to use top to track multiple CPU information, and what processes are taking up the most memory and cpu. 3) LSOF: Has anyone done anything with LSOF, If I have a high iowait time as shown by iostat, I'd like to use lsof to show me which processes are writing to those busy disk or nfs i/o's. Thanks..James

FW: [hobbit] bbproxy
by JasonAS_Jones＠mentor.com 08 Dec '06

Hi, These are the instructions my predecessor left: 1. Add --listening=127.0.0.1 to hobbitd in your forwarding server's hobbitlaunch.cfg 2. Enable bbproxy in your forwarding server's hobbitlaunch.cfg use the option --bbdisplay=5.6.7.8,127.0.0.1(NB:127.0.0.1 is last because the last variable points to the server that configures clients) to tell it to forward requests to both servers (also add -- listen=137.202.205.54(external ip)) 3. Change the BBSERVERIP setting in hobbitserver.cfg to point at the 127.0.0.1 address. This setting is used e.g. by the web CGI's that talk to the "real" hobbit server, so it is best to point at the real server IP, not the proxy 4. If you run network tests from the same server then you probably need to change the CMD setting in hobbitlaunch.cfg also. Instead of calling bbtest-net directly, put it into a shell script wrapper and set BBDISP explicitly to the 5.6.7.8 address before bbtest-net. Otherwise, it will pick the BBSERVERIP setting and send the network test results to 127.0.0.1 - so they won't go through the proxy, and hence you won't see them on the main server. 5. Restart Hobbit So I've done step 1-3 but 4 is confusing me, are there any other ways to go about getting a proxy setup or is this the only know solution? Thanks, Jason. -----Original Message----- From: Buchan Milne [mailto:bgmilne at staff.telkomsa.net] Sent: 08 December 2006 07:11 To: hobbit at hswn.dk Cc: Jones, Jason (Altrincham) Subject: Re: [hobbit] bbproxy On Thursday 07 December 2006 18:28, Jones, Jason (Altrincham) wrote: > Hi all, > > Does anyone have a small how-to on getting bbproxy to work, I have > figured out most of the basics but have run into two problems, first the > proxy servers webpage is now frozen, which I don't want to happen and > second the ping, http, ftp etc. tests on the main server are purple, all > other tests are as they should be.
