TS - Trying to create an escalation in hobbit-alerts.cfg
by d.tom.schmitt＠L-3com.com 04 Dec '09

04 Dec '09

It the best way to create an escalation to do it: HOST=abc.com SERVICE=conn RECOVERED # EVERYDAY Notify immediately and every 10 minutes MAIL billybob at abc.com COLOR=red REPEAT=10m HOST=abc.com SERVICE=conn RECOVERED TIME=1-5:0000-2359 DURATION>59m # WEEKDAY Notify weekdays after 1 hour and every hour MAIL jimmyjames at abc.com COLOR=red REPEAT=60m HOST=abc.com SERVICE=conn TIME=0,6 RECOVERED DURATION>179m # WEEKEND Notify after 3 hours MAIL hank at abc.com COLOR=red REPEAT=7d HOST=abc.com SERVICE=conn TIME=0,6 RECOVERED DURATION>479m # WEEKEND Notify after 8 hours MAIL jullie at abc.com COLOR=red REPEAT=7d I don't believe that the DURATION= can be used on the MAIL line only on the HOST= line per the help on the web page. Will this work as stated? If you don't put SERVICE= on the line will it function for all services? Or do you need something line '=*'?

Hobbit Server Crash
by Gudmundur.O.Ingvarsson＠landsbankinn.is 04 Dec '09

04 Dec '09

Just now, 1 week before scheduled update of our Hobbit server to Xymon our hobbit server died. The only thing I know that was new at the time of the crash was an vbs script sending MSMQ counters along with it's status message, it was an old script but we just added a new counter. Anyway, it seems hobbitd doesn work now, it's version 4.2.0 and you probably want me to upgrade immediatly but I still find this strange... It's worked for years and suddenly now it dies? Anyway, I've found the following rummaging through the logs and core In Hobbitlaunch.log Task hobbitd terminated by signal 6 In Hobbitd.log 2009-12-04 13:01:08 Setup complete GDB of the core warning: Can't read pathname for load map: Input/output error.

[New process 22639] #0 0xb7f98410 in __kernel_vsyscall () No new packages have been installed, no updates been done. The only thing was the vbs script and we've disabled that now.

NAN Graph Issue
by Chris.Mcmahon＠fallonclinic.org 03 Dec '09

03 Dec '09

I'm having issues with graphing, we are monitoring about 700 PC's. Graphing was working perfectly until we changed to centrally controlled configs. We now get NAN next to every value, the only graph that works is the "conn". Thanks, Chris

FW: [hobbit] Hobbit 4.2 and IOSTAT on AIX - followup question
by Mike.Wood＠kci1.com 03 Dec '09

03 Dec '09

Hi All, I have IOSTAT working on AIX (!), with only a minor issue. I'm graphing by VG aggregate data. I have the iostat-vg.rrd files for all of the volume groups. My test server graphs reads and writes, 4 VG to a graph. However, I'm left with 4 empty graph slots at the bottom. All VG's are accounted for. Any idea what might cause this problem?

Hobbit Dev mailing list?
by Galen.Johnson＠sas.com 03 Dec '09

03 Dec '09

Hey, I don't recall if this has been put out there before but is there a dev list so users can post questions there regarding the unreleased builds and other development related content? I know Henrik is the primary developer but it might be nice to have a central list that only developer issues are posted so you don't have to filter through daily care and feeding emails when looking for issues (or posted fixes). Many projects typically have both a user and a developer list for these reasons. =G=

TS - Yellow on hobbitd
by d.tom.schmitt＠L-3com.com 02 Dec '09

02 Dec '09

I need some assistance in understanding the YELLOW on the hobbit icon. This is the server xymon is running on. This is the only message that I can find that is an error message: Latest errormessages: Oversize status msg from 128.170.28.14 for slcts00:msgs truncated (n=801511, limit=262144) Not sure what can be done to correct the error? Can I bump up a value somewhere? Thanks, Tom Schmitt Senior IT Staff - R&D L-3 Communication Systems West 640 North 2200 West P.O.

[hobbit] downtime
by dddugan＠iastate.edu 02 Dec '09

02 Dec '09

All, Despite the current man page, downtime should be specified as one of these: DOWNTIME=day:starttime:endtime[,day:starttime:endtime] DOWNTIME=columns:day:starttime:endtime:cause[,columns:day:starttime:endt ime:cause] The code is not written to handle just four arguments (day:starttime:endtime:cause OR columns:day:starttime:endtime). Cheers.

XML Parsing
by Jason.Chambers＠geosoft.com 02 Dec '09

Does anyone know how I can go about parsing data out of an XML txt file and then including it into hobbit? That would be extremely cool if there is an easy way to do that.
