Non-green view for pages
by ctg24＠admin.cam.ac.uk 18 Sep '08

18 Sep '08

Hi, I was wondering if it is possible to setup a bb2.html equivalent for specific groups of servers - for instance, a "all non green UNIX servers" page and a "all non-green windows servers" page. We already split our clients into unix and windows pages, but bb2.html only seems to work for all clients, irrespective of group. Best regards, Chris.

Hi All, Can any some one tell me how to configure the hobbit client on hp-ux that can be found on http://www.razorsedge.org/~mike/software/hobbit/hpux/ ? I've installed the package on the client and what next? I don't get any data in my hobbit display server from the hp-ux client? What are the steps to get this done? Where can i find a hobbit client for HP-UX 11.23 because the package on http://www.razorsedge.org/~mike/software/hobbit/hpux/ won't install op hp-ux 11.23 Many thanks... Kind regards, DNS

Tricky bug in Purple status determination
by Samuel.Cai＠ehealth-china.com 16 Sep '08

16 Sep '08

Hi, Recently we found a weird problem in history of one monitoring, there were a lot of purple status, and the duration was "none" or 1second. The thing we were monitoring was running fine, and this problem was there since we used Hobbit (more than half a year), so it rules out possibility of error in that thing. This monitoring is a script defined in hobbitlaunch.cfg on Hobbit server, runs every 30m I checked log, the purple status was updated by hobbitd, and then I checked source code of hobbitd, found it checked purple status every 30m (correct me if I'm wrong since I only know a little of C), so I guess due to some program issues, there were some milliseconds differences bettwen hobbitd's determination and script's update, that results in very short duration of purple status. So after I changed interval to 25m, that weird problem is gone. Thanks, Samuel Cai

No SNMP data for devmon template
by URMM＠VM.MARIST.EDU 13 Sep '08

13 Sep '08

I've been beating my head against a wall on this and finally admit I don't have a clue why it is not working. We're just getting started with Hobbit, but plan on making it our main monitoring solution. I've got devmon running with it and have been able to monitor the devices that already have templates. However, some of our devices don't have templates, so I'm trying to define one for them (Weather Goose environmental monitors). To start, I'm just trying to define a simple temperature test. I can see that devmon is reading the files and all seems to be OK. However, I get the dreaded "No SNMP data found for upsenvTempwx on ..." and the test does not work. I can do an snmpget on the same oid and it returns data with no problem. I've seen other notes like this in the archives, but never any solution. I've redone the template files over and over, but nothing seems to make a dent. I'll include my files in case one of you can see what I'm doing wrong. Any advice would be appreciated.
