Hey All, Has anyone written an external application to monitor/graph the amount of email that a Barracuda Spam Appliance handles? Preferably, the XML page parsing, not SNMP, but if you got it, I can hack at it to make it work :) Thanks! --Pat

Commercial support for Hobbit
by Johann.Eggers＠teleatlas.com 16 Nov '06

Hi Henrik, It seems that the support at hobbitmon.com <mailto:support at hobbitmon.com> is not working (I got a "undeliverable" message from our mail-server several times). So I will resend it over the list. (Sorry for bothering the others...) Thanks Johann ________________________________ From: Johann Eggers Sent: Dienstag, 14. November 2006 09:52 To: support at hobbitmon.com Subject: Commercial support for Hobbit Hi Henrik, It's quite a couple of days ago that I asked you regarding the availibility of commercial support for Hobbit. Recently I re-checked your "Support"-Link (http://www.hswn.dk/~henrik/support.html) and it seems to me that you made the decision to provide commercial support. Is this correct? Can you give us more detailed information about paid support, so that we can decide wether to use it or not? Thanks in advance Johann Eggers Sr. Systems Engineer Data Center & Operations Tele Atlas

LDAP Test
by jkwade＠futurefrontiers.com 16 Nov '06

I've compiled the LDAP test in hobbit, and I'm trying to test the login ability. However, I'm not sure it's working. All the test status shows me is O.K.. Here's what's in my bb-hosts file: 192.168.20.1 systemA # ldaplogin=ldapuser:passwd ldap:systemA:389 Am I missing something here? What's a good way to test if I'm actually doing a login test of ldap? What does the status normally show? Thanks..James

We have our own generated ssl certifcates. When I try to login to the page, I get a pop-up telling me that the security site doesn't match the site. Can I have BB ignore this and continue the http test? ie..Automatically answer yes to the prompt? Thanks...James

CPU Monitoring

Hello All, I'm looking for best practices with regard to CPU monitoring. I have systems where the CPU is overloaded, and we really can't do much about it. What do most folks do with the CPU monitor with regard to showing RED all the time? Thanks.James

Is there a way to monitor if a process is started by a particular user, to send an alert? We have a system here that's getting overloaded by a particular user, and we want to monitor when/if he kicks off any process. Thanks...James

[hobbit] CPU Monitoring
by PNIXON＠ci.somerville.ma.us 15 Nov '06

15 Nov '06

While others may disagree, I think that Hobbit should be configured for what you expect to be normal situations and notify you when it goes above those situations. If you think ServerA's Load can be 2.00 without an issue, go ahead and configure it that way. Yellow - 2.00, Red 2.25 (or whatever you consider appropriate). --Pat _____ From: James Wade [mailto:jkwade at futurefrontiers.com] Sent: Wednesday, November 15, 2006 2:47 PM To: hobbit at hswn.dk Subject: [hobbit] CPU Monitoring Hello All, I'm looking for best practices with regard to CPU monitoring.

how to test depends tag
by vadud3＠gmail.com 15 Nov '06

15 Nov '06

Is there a way to quick test the depends tag besides changing the host's ip to a fake one that the service depends on? In other words if depends=(testA:host1/test1) I can change the host1's ip in bb-hosts to test if depends working. Is there any other less crude way to test it? Thanks -- Asif Iqbal PGP Key: 0xE62693C5 KeyServer: pgp.mit.edu

What version of SPLAT are you running? I am running the hobbit client on R56 - R60 and R61. -----Original Message----- From: Andy France [mailto:Andy at zespri.com] Sent: Monday, September 11, 2006 3:32 PM To: hobbit at hswn.dk Subject: Re: [hobbit] Hobbit and bb-central I'd be interested in hearing about this too :-) I've only taken a short look at devmon - can it be configured to use a non standard SNMP port? The SecurePlatform SNMP runs on port 260 rather than the standard 161/162. Andy. "Bob Gordon" <rgordonjr at gmail.com> wrote on 12/09/2006 10:21:48 a.m.: > > On 9/11/06, Michael A.

/var/run/hobbitclient-runtime.cfg question
by gn1＠sanger.ac.uk 15 Nov '06

15 Nov '06

Hi, Some of my colleagues would like the hobbit-client to be cleaner so I'm trying to figure out which files may be deleted safely by the init.d script (patchs will be provided) What is the file /var/run/hobbitclient-runtime.cfg used for? It seem to be recreated by the init script when starting the client (for debian clients at least), so is it safe to remove it when stopping the client? Cheers, Gildas
