msgs monitoring

Is it possible to have a second msgs column? I need to monitor a series of log files unrelated to standard system messages and would like to place it under its own column.

Hobbit latest trunk failing to compile on sparc solaris 9

(hobbit)@hobbit:~/src/trunk$ ./configure Configuration script for Hobbit This script asks a few questions and builds a Makefile to compile Hobbit Checking your make-utility Checking pre-requisites for building Hobbit Checking for fping ... Hobbit has a built-in ping utility (hobbitping) However, it is not yet fully stable and therefore it may be best to use the external fping utility instead.

FreeNAS and hobbit client
by josh＠imaginenetworksllc.com 19 Nov '08

19 Nov '08

Has anyone gotten the Hobbit client (or is that the Xymon client now =) running on FreeNAS? Or even FreeBSD 6.x for that matter? I am curious on how to go about starting this. I have minimal BSD experience so I am hoping I can learn how package management is done and create a package for Xymon for the easiest route.

BBwin report
by rower.master＠gmail.com 19 Nov '08

19 Nov '08

Hi all, I would like to extract the data from the xml file of bbwin client to a html configuration report. Has someone here did something similar? I have my bbwin(s).cfg stored at the hobbit server because I run bbwinupdate feature. My idea is to read the cfg files locally and generate a html report. Any smart ideas ? Thanks in advance, Mario.

Can't read, should be red
by josh＠imaginenetworksllc.com 19 Nov '08

19 Nov '08

Does anyone else believe that if a check, msgs for example, should be read if it can't read /var/log/messages? It only makes sense for it to call attention in this case, does it not? I bring this up because I just installed a Xymon server at home and noticed that msgs was green and I had not given my xymon user permission to read it yet. I believe it would be a great reminder and security would benefit. Just throwing my two cents in. Now a days it might take three or four cents, though...

Acknowledgment email
by URMM＠VM.MARIST.EDU 18 Nov '08

18 Nov '08

Is there a way to get an acknowledgment to generate an email the way the alerts do? I've poked through all the list archives, but haven't found anything about it. I have alerts going to email lists so that several support people will receive the email/page. I'd like the acks to go there too, so that the rest are informed when one of the group picks up the problem. Martha McConaghy Marist College

FW: [hobbit] FW: RRD data points - still struggling with RRD and graph distortion
by Mike.Wood＠kci1.com 18 Nov '08

18 Nov '08

Hi All, I'm still struggling with RRD, and how Xymon / Hobbit uses it to graph. I've modified /hobbitd/do_rrd.c where each RRD has 2304 datapoints (and make / make install / restart hobbit). I've also used rrdtool resize vmstat.rrd 1 GROW 1728 (then copy the resize.rrd file back over vmstat.rrd) to match the datpoints. However, my graphs don't show up correctly. They get truncated like in the attached .jpg files. Can anyone help an RRD thick-head get me over the hump? Thanks!

Thanks for looking! - I have a perl script to update all the rrd files: - it uses rrdtool resize <rrd file> GROW to add extra datapoints so the rrd has 5760 data points / rra (per default it has 756 data points) - it adds also MAX and MIN rra's, this is more tricky because I export the rrd to xml, change the xml info and revert back to an rrd file. Unfortunatly, I can not share this script. But with use RRDs ; use File::Find (); you can get info about the file and find them ;) Stef To unsubscribe from the hobbit list, send an e-mail to hobbit-unsubscribe at hswn.dk ***************************************************************************** "CONFIDENTIALITY NOTICE: This transmission (including any accompanying attachments) is confidential, is intended only for the individual or entity named above, and is likely to contain privileged, proprietary and confidential information that is exempt from disclosure requests under applicable law.
