[hobbit] External Client scripts and MACHINE environment
by rdeal＠tigr.ORG 18 Nov '05

18 Nov '05

I don't have a problem with $MACHINE being set but I do set other variables to get the list of ext's working in client/etc/hobbitclient.cfg. Here is my list, maybe it will be of some help to you or others: # #from prtdiag script # UNAME="/sbin/uname" #PLATFORM_SPEC=`${UNAME} -i` #PRTDIAG_COMMAND="/usr/platform/${PLATFORM_SPEC}/sbin/prtdiag" # can't seem to use `` to set variables in hobbitclient.cfg so set these # in the script itself. PRTDIAG_OPT="-v" ZONENAME=/usr/bin/zonename #Systems that don't support temperature checks EXCLUDE_SYSTEMS="Ultra-1 Ultra-2 Ultra-5_10 Ultra-30 Ultra-60 Ultra-80 UltraAX-i2 UltraSPARC-IIi-cEngine Sun-Fire Netra-T4 UltraAX-e2 Ultra-Enterprise-10000" PRTDIAG_IGNORE_ERRORS="No failures|Most recent AC Power Failure|Minimum Available|CS Fail|No Hardware failures|^===|currently no Boards|Fault Fan" PRTDIAG_IGNORE_FAULTS="No Recent System Faults found|No System Faults found|Fault Value|Fault LED|NO_FAULT|Power Fault|Status Fault|Fault off" LOM_COMMAND="/usr/sbin/lom" LOM_OPT="-pfvt" # # from meta script # MDBIN="/usr/sbin" METADB=${MDBIN}/metadb METAHS=${MDBIN}/metahs METASTAT=${MDBIN}/metastat METASET=${MDBIN}/metaset # # for bb-cpu2 # SWAP="/usr/sbin/swap" PSRINFO="/usr/sbin/psrinfo" MPSTAT="/usr/bin/mpstat" # # for bb-msgs.sh # BBMSGSTAB="${BBHOME}/etc/bb-msgstab" # Directory for the Hobbit client files # # for bb-vxcheck.sh # VXDISK_LIST="/var/BB/bb/sbin/vxdisk list" VXDISK_CHECK="/var/BB/bb/sbin/vxdisk check" VXDG_LIST="/var/BB/bb/sbin/vxdg list" VXIOD="/var/BB/bb/sbin/vxiod" Many scripts also use some of the pre-defined variables in the file, make sure they are defined with the correct path for your systems.

[hobbit] hobbit + bb-xsnmp.pl
by rdeal＠tigr.ORG 18 Nov '05

Yes I have the same problem. Although the format is close to the output from unix hosts: Memory Used Total Percentage green Physical 221M 512M 43% green Swap 89M 10590M 0% the cisco equipment have different pools of memory that bb-xsnmp.pl reports. For an IOS system you get this: Memory Used Total Percentage green Processor 5388772 54132444 9.95% green I/O 1088780 8393328 12.97% for a catos system you get something more like this though: Memory Used Total Percentage green DRAM 84903000 134086864 63.32% green MALLOC 16298432 49809728 32.72% green FLASH 15569836 33554432 46.40% green NVRAM 435266 524288 83.02% green MBUF 123776 4231168 2.93% green CLUSTER 1861632 14188544 13.12% hobbitd very specifically looks for : phys = strstr(msg, "Physical"); if (phys == NULL) phys = strstr(msg, "Real"); swap = strstr(msg, "Swap"); if (swap == NULL) swap = strstr(msg, "Page"); actual = strstr(msg, "Actual"); if (actual == NULL) actual = str str(msg, "Virtual"); so maybe FLASH and NVRAM could more appropriately be graphed under disk but I didn't see a good way to map say I/O ram to Physical, Swap, or Actual. I think the change will need to be on the Hobbitd side in do_memory.c Butch > -----Original Message----- > From: Marco Avvisano [mailto:marco.avvisano at regione.toscana.it] > Sent: Friday, November 18, 2005 3:49 AM > To: hobbit at hswn.dk > Subject: Re: [hobbit] hobbit + bb-xsnmp.pl > > I'm testing these version (1.79), all work fine except the memory graph > (no > rrd file is created for memory) > Have you the same problem? > Marco > > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "Deal, Richard" <rdeal at tigr.ORG> > To: <hobbit at hswn.dk> > Sent: Tuesday, November 15, 2005 8:38 PM > Subject: RE: [hobbit] hobbit + bb-xsnmp.pl > > > > In case this can help anyone else I have included Dan's patch and all > > the various fixes I have for bb-xsnmp.pl and put it up to deadcat: > > http://www.deadcat.net/viewfile.php?fileid=929 > > The 1.78_beta (my main starting point) was from Ben Pitzer who has done > > a lot of work getting the script working.

problem with graphs(4.1.2p1)
by longina＠imada.sdu.dk 18 Nov '05

18 Nov '05

Hi again, I upgraded Hobbit to the newest version and all graphs dissapeared. Click on graph links ends with Internal Server Error page. Hobbitd_rrd starts up and runs. New data are gathered in data/rrd/* The only information about failure is in rrd-status.log - a lot of the same messages for each host/service - (I have seen them before, and they seemd to harmless in the prevoius version of Hobbit) -- RRD error updating.... illegal attempt to update using time 1132231125 when last update time is 1132231125 (minimum one second step) --- Hobbit runs on SunOS(sparc) - there were no problems with graphs in the previous version (4.1.2). How can I get more information from the Hobbit- what is wrong? Longina -- Longina Przybyszewska, system programmer Dept. of Math. & Comp.

ftp silent test
by damiano.vozza＠apss.tn.it 18 Nov '05

Hi, on some host I use the ftp:s (silent test) tag and the response is ALWAYS of this type: service ftp on host_name is not OK : Unexpected service response Seconds: 0.00 with yellow status. Instead ftp tests report "correct" situation. Can you tell me if this is the normal behaviour for ftp:s test?

Sorry about that.. Got two more (probably dumb questions) The bbgen test is showing up yellow on my bb-server and its saying it can't open the event log. I don't see anything in the docs about where its attemping to write. Also is there any advantage to using the hobbit client versus using the bb client?

In case this can help anyone else I have included Dan's patch and all the various fixes I have for bb-xsnmp.pl and put it up to deadcat: http://www.deadcat.net/viewfile.php?fileid=929 The 1.78_beta (my main starting point) was from Ben Pitzer who has done a lot of work getting the script working. I have not been able to get back in touch with him though as my last contact was over a year ago. (just want to give credit were credit is due). I hope others find this as useful as I have.

External Client scripts and MACHINE environment
by iqbala-hobbit＠qwestip.net 18 Nov '05

Hi All I just started using bb-cpu2[1] on ~hobbit/client/ext of version 4.1.2. I am noticing it $MACHINE has no value inside the script while I run a test like this ./bin/bbcmd sh -x ~hobbit/client/ext/bb-cpu2.sh Here is a google cache of the bb-cpu2 on deadcat.net since the site seems kind a slow now. http://66.102.7.104/search?q=cache:6p53UoHzUEcJ:www.deadcat.net/BB/ext/cpu2… I checked all the emails upto Oct 5th and don't think saw a good answer to this problem. I hate to declare the value of MACHINE inside the script. Any suggestion would be greatly appreciated.

I just migrated my BB install to hobbit. Notcing one huge problem. On safari and firefox whenever I click any of the links that use any of the cgi's its trying to download that shell script instead of executing it. In my httpd.conf I have the dir that has the hobbit-cgi stuff marked as ExecCGI. I'm stumped. ideas? -paul Paul Swinderman Network Operations Analyst IT @ CSUMB / Network Services (831) 582-3802 paul at csumb.edu

Hey all, I'm trying to debug whether or not an external script is launching. If I run it by hand, it works perfectly. I've checked all the log files in /var/log/hobbit and there's nothing apparent from them it's working. I'm assuming it runs once when it starts and then in 5m intervals (according to hobbitlaunch.cfg). here's my snippet from hobbitlaunch [xsnmp] ENVFILE /bb/hms/server/etc/hobbitserver.cfg NEEDS hobbitd CMD /bb/hms/server/ext/bb-xsnmp.pl LOGFILE $BBSERVERLOGS/bb-xsnmp.log INTERVAL 5m
