[hobbit] OT: Anybody Here Use Qpage?
by ajeffco＠orhs.org 25 Apr '05

Hi, I was never able to get qpage-3.3 working on AIX, everything looked ok, compiled clean, etc,etc. It's been a long time, but if I remember correctly, it was similar to your problem. The fix for me was going from qpage-3.3, to qpage-3.2, and it worked fine then. You can dl from the same place, just change it to qpage-3.2, ie: http://www.qpage.org/download/qpage-3.2.tar.Z Hope that helps, Al __________________________________ Al Jeffcoat IBM Certified Support Specialist, AIX Enterprise SAN and Storage Administrator System Programmer II -----Original Message----- From: Andy France [mailto:Andy at zespri.com] Sent: Sunday, April 24, 2005 7:50 PM To: hobbit at hswn.dk Subject: [hobbit] OT: Anybody Here Use Qpage? Hi All, We have finally got around to getting a pager for after hours notification. Seems that email to SMS isn't that great when your SMTP gateway is the server in trouble :-) I have downloaded and compiled qpage (http://www.qpage.org) and it seems to work OK - except it throws the following error: bash-3.00# qpage -d -q 60 giving up root privileges becoming user 'daemon' /etc/qpage.cf(4): unexpected: <administrator = andy at zespri.com> /etc/qpage.cf(6): unexpected: <queuedir = /var/spool/qpage> /etc/qpage.cf(8): unexpected: <modem = zyxel> /etc/qpage.cf(9): unexpected: <device = /dev/cua/a> /etc/qpage.cf(10): unexpected: <initcmd = ATZ> /etc/qpage.cf(11): unexpected: <dialcmd = ATDT> /etc/qpage.cf(13): unexpected: <service = TelecomNZ> /etc/qpage.cf(14): unexpected: <device = zyxel> /etc/qpage.cf(15): unexpected: <phone = 0264001283> /etc/qpage.cf(16): unexpected: <msgprefix = false> /etc/qpage.cf(18): unexpected: <pager = support> /etc/qpage.cf(19): unexpected: <pagerid = 0262749494> /etc/qpage.cf(20): unexpected: <service = TelecomNZ> Error reading configuration file So it seems it can read the config file OK, but just doesn't like the contents. I read the sample in the man page and can't see any issues. I am running on Solaris 9 x86, and compiled qpage from source using gcc 3.4.3 (installed as a package from http://www.blastwave.org) I have emailed the qpage author but have not had a response. Does anyone else here have experience with qpage? Especially getting the config to work!

CPU load numbers
by Kevin.Hanrahan＠novainfo.com 25 Apr '05

25 Apr '05

Hi all, Can someone tell me if it is possible to "correct" the decimal point placement for the CPU Load test? I only get this on the Unix clients. If the load is 3 the value I see is 300. Larrd has the correct value but hobbit reports it as 300 so something is off by a factor of 100. I am assuming that this is not Hobbit but the Bbclient. Is there a setting to correct this?

feature request: ability to compare trend charts from different systems in a single page
by tgeorgoulias＠mcclatchy.com 25 Apr '05

25 Apr '05

I think I mentioned this before, but it may have been forgotten. I'd like to request a feature similar to the larrd-graphs.cgi script of yore, which easily allowed trend charts from different hosts and tests to be displayed on a single page for comparison. This tool is invaluable in comparing the behavior of different servers. Just a request, not a demand. Tom

It says the firewall/http failed. But, the firewall has no failed reports during that time. It's been green for a long time, no failures in the logs. Also, I'm getting inconsistent behaviour using the tag "badhttp:1:2:3" on a host. Once it went red and then clear, another time it went clear then red over an hour later. I haven't quite nailed down what it's doing but it doesn't seem right. From what I understand, it should go clear-yellow-red corresponding to the first-second-third failed test. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ David Stuffle Delta Faucet Company This email and any files transmitted with it are confidential and intended solely for the use of the individual or entity to whom they are addressed.

That isn't so surprising, if you have a low-volume mail server, or you have good outbound connections so you can handle outgoing mail quickly. What numbers were you expecting for the outbound mail queue size ? And what does the output from your "mailq" command look like ?
