SSL Support for Hobbit
by geoff.hallford＠gmail.com 22 Nov '06

22 Nov '06

I originally compiled Hobbit without SSL support because we had no need but of course ... now we need SSL support. I don't want to lose any of the data I have already collected or my configs, so I am a bit hesitant. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to accomplish the recompile with SSL support (safely)? Thanks, Geoff

[hobbit] No graph from RRD data
by J.Rutten＠rad.umcn.nl 22 Nov '06

Great! Now the rrd file has the right type and the data shows up in the graph, but graph is showed on the trends page only. My hobbitserver.cfg: TEST2RRD="cpu=la,disk,...,usage=ncv" NCV_usage="usage:GAUGE" GRAPHS="la,disk,...,usage" How can I get the graph on the status page from the "usage" test?

No graph from RRD data

Hi all, Following problem keeps me busy several days now.... I'm using hobbit 4.2.0. I want to create a custom graph and use ncv to create the rrd file. I receive data from a custom script on the client, a column "usage" appears on the hobbit display. The rrd file is created, but no graph is created, what's wrong?? In the data is a parameter in the following format: usage:1 hobbitserver.cfg is configured: TEST2RRD="cpu=la,disk,.....,usage=ncv" GRAPHS="la,disk,......,usage" NCV_usage="usage:GAUGE" This works fine, a file named usage.rrd is created. Dump from usage.rrd:  <rrd> <version> 0001 </version> <step> 300 </step>  <lastupdate> 1164183687 </lastupdate>  <ds> <name> usage </name> <type> DERIVE </type> <minimal_heartbeat> 600 </minimal_heartbeat> <min> 0.0000000000e+00 </min> <max> NaN </max>  <last_ds> 1 </last_ds> <value> 0.0000000000e+00 </value> <unknown_sec> 0 </unknown_sec> </ds> hobbitgraph.cfg is configured: [usage] TITLE Usage YAXIS # Users DEF:u=usage.rrd:usage:AVERAGE COMMENT:\n GPRINT:u:LAST: \: %5.1lf (cur) GPRINT:u:MAX: \: %5.1lf (max) GPRINT:u:MIN: \: %5.1lf (min) GPRINT:u:AVERAGE: \: %5.1lf (avg)\n Result: no graph is being displayed, what is missing or am I doing wrong?

Here's the status page from the test: ---------- green 22-11-2006 11:22:32,48 usage:1 ------------- I stripped the rest for debugging the right stuf. So I guess your right that RRD isn't picking the right value.....

Greetings, Has anyone ever come across or divined a way to integrate Hobbit with HP Availability Manager? We're are trying to monitor more of our VMS systems on Hobbit and would like to integrate existing tools (HP Mon and Hobbit). Thanks in advance, Mike Michael Dunne Network Support Specialist AccuWeather, Inc. ~HISTORY, n.

disk usage in size (disk1 graph) limited to ~ 2TB ?
by bgmilne＠staff.telkomsa.net 21 Nov '06

21 Nov '06

I was considering making the disk1 graph the default for a specific installation (where the customer has a service which includes a specific capacity of storage available). However, the disk1 graph flatlines at just over 2TB (the filesystem is 4.5TB), with the values 2147483647.0KB for max and cur, while the disk check shows: Filesystem 1024-blocks Used Available Capacity Mounted on xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:/share 4603452448 3710256576 893195872 81% /share The disk graph (in percentage) looks a lot more reasonable (no flat lines). 4.2.0 running on all boxen involved.
