[hobbit] External Script installation

Sometimes you get that message when the perl script can't find perl. Maybe you should check the first line of the script? Another reason (just guessing) is that the Hobbit user cannot read the script... GLH -----Original Message----- From: robert.s.bethke at wmich.edu [mailto:robert.s.bethke at wmich.edu] On Behalf Of Robert Bethke Sent: Wednesday, March 29, 2006 11:31 AM To: hobbit at hswn.dk Subject: [hobbit] External Script installation I am trying to setup bb-imap.pl from http://www.deadcat.net/viewfile.php?fileid=513. So far I've installed each of the required perl modules and placed the BigBrother.pm (Already adjusted bb-imap.pl to point to it) and bb-imap.pl files within the EXT folder. I also added the following to hobbitlaunch.cfg: [bbimap] ENVFILE /home/hobbit/server/etc/bb-imaptab NEEDS hobbitd CMD $BBHOME/ext/bb-imap.pl LOGFILE $BBSERVERLOGS/bb-imap.log INTERVAL 5m When I try to run this test nothing happens within hobbit. If I check the bb-imap.log the only statement it contains is: 2006-03-29 11:33:21 Could not start task bbimap using command '/home/hobbit/server/ext/bb-imap.pl': No such file or directory I'm confused about this because the file does exist at that location. I also changed $test to bbimap from imap2. I'm going to guess I'm missing some installation step on this thing. If someone could point out what I'm not doing right and give me a the correct steps to get this working it would be greatly appreciated.

Viewing Custom Graphs

Hi, I finally managed to create the NCV_iostat - iostat.rrd file. I can see that the new file iostat.rrd is being updated every few minutes. But the graphs doesn't appear on the iostat column or in the trends column. I have tried to add iostat and ncv=iostat to TRENDS and GRAPHS under the specific host in bb-hosts 192.168.1.115 server01 # GRAPHS:iostat,ncv=iostat TRENDS:*,vmstat:vmstat|vmstat4|vmstat5,ram,mrtg,ncv=iostat,iostat What am I missing ? Should there be an "iostat" record in hobbitgraph.cfg under etc ? Any help/suggestion would be appreciated.

The odd thing is that I do get a proper return for Date::Manip. It would seem this script doesn't see it for some reason, though I believe it's in the default location. All the other required modules are also installed and the imaptab file is formatted properly. Anyway let me know if you need any further information.

deleting history of a test
by stephane.caminade＠ias.u-psud.fr 30 Mar '06

30 Mar '06

Hi, I had added a test that after some thinking was not reaally needed. I decided to delete it, and its history. I looked at tips and tricks, and tried to run '~/server/bin/bb 127.0.0.1 "drop HOSTNAME dns" ', which did not work apparently. So I went into the ~/data directory, and deleted in hist, histlogs and logs all the data concerning this test. However, on the main page, I still had the test, which was no longer updated, but still existed. It took me some time to find that in ~/server/tmp/ there is a file named hobbitd.chk which does not disappear when you stop/start hobbit. Deleting this file apparently forced hobbit to recreate it, and this time my deleted test had disappeared. Is that the expected behaviour ? Regards, and keep up the great work you re doing on Hobbit.

hobbitd_client crashed
by gmbfly98＠gmail.com 30 Mar '06

30 Mar '06

For the past couple days, my hobbit server has been showing the "hobbitd_client" process as purple. The error message it shows is: "red - Program crashed Fatal signal caught!" I restarted the hobbit client and server on the hobbit server without any luck. I looked on another hobbit server I have access to, and it doesn't show the "hobbitd_client" process. Also, this only shows up on the server, and none of the clients that I'm monitoring. Can this check be disabled, or does it actually mean anything?

graphs for custom services
by jht＠lj.net 29 Mar '06

29 Mar '06

I'm struggling with how to get the graphs for a new custom service to show up when you click on the button for the service. The graphs appear fine when the 'trends' button is clicked, but do not appear when the 'voipinfo' button is clicked. Any clues how to do this would be much appreciated. to TRENDS: In the bb-hosts file for the host I added: ,voipinfo:voipinfopages|voipinfoapt|voipinfoaq hobbitserver.cfg =========== I added to the TEST2RRD= definition ,voipinfo=ncv I added to the GRAPHS= definition ,voipinfo I added a new line: NCV_voipinfo="Pages:GAUGE,AvgPageTime:GAUGE,AvgQueries:GAUGE" hobbitgraph.cfg =========== I added these graph definitions: [voipinfopages] ... [voipinfoapt] ... [voipinfoaq] ... And I setup a remote client to report the data back to the Hobbit server.
