Downloaded trunk.tar.gz with link from Henrik's demosite today. When running configure I get: Checking for zlib ... test-zlib.c: In function `main': test-zlib.c:20: error: `ZLIB_VER_MAJOR' undeclared (first use in this function) test-zlib.c:20: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once test-zlib.c:20: error: for each function it appears in.) test-zlib.c:20: error: `ZLIB_VER_MINOR' undeclared (first use in this function) make: *** [test-compile] Error 1 ERROR: ZLIB include files found in /usr/local/include, but compile fails. $ My version of zlib is 1.2.3 -- Regards Lars Ebeling http://leopg9.no-ip.org Hobbithobbyist "I am not young enough to know everything." -- Oscar Wilde

No Procs Graph?
by Ann.Waters＠kp.org 03 Sep '08

03 Sep '08

Hi Folks, I am new to Hobbit and noticed that when you drill down to a device's procs information, there is no graph but the magnifying glass shows up as if a graph should be there. I've looked through so many man pages, wiki entries, FAQs, etc. trying to figure this out that my head is spinning! And when I go to the Hobbit demo site and drill down to http://hswn.dk/hobbit-cgi/bb-hostsvc.sh?HOST=voodoo.hswn.dk&SERVICE=procs and http://hswn.dk/hobbit-cgi/bb-hostsvc.sh?HOST=sarge&SERVICE=procs, the procs graphs don't show up there either. So, have I been wasting my time trying to make that graph work or is there some magical trick that a master is willing to reveal to me? Any/all help will be appreciated! Thanks! Ann

Strange Rule Matching Issue
by chris4136＠gmail.com 03 Sep '08

03 Sep '08

Hello, I have a strange rule matching issue. I have a rule in my hobbit-alert file which looks like this: *HOST=* SERVICE=* MAIL $test COLOR=red REPEAT=10* The rule **SHOULD** only send when the disk (or any other service) reaches red color. I have disk defined in my hobbit-clients.cfg as: *DISK * 90 95 * I have a server that currently has a filesystem filled to 91%. The server name is 'stflnx1d'. I am getting the following emails: *yellow Wed Sep 3 08:52:24 EDT 2008 - Filesystems NOT ok &yellow /var (91% used) has reached the WARNING level (90%)* I ran the bin/hobbitd_alert and got the following: *00011596 2008-09-03 09:24:20 Matching host:service:page 'stflnx1d:disk:AIXDev' against rule line 138 00011596 2008-09-03 09:24:20 *** Match with 'MAIL $test COLOR=red REPEAT=10' *** 00011596 2008-09-03 09:24:20 Mail alert with command '/var/spool/mail/mrhobbit "Hobbit [12345] stflnx1d:disk CRITICAL (RED)" chris at xxxxx.com'* As you can see it matches the rule as RED even though I an the warning state of yellow for the disk on the server. It also sends me the email with Yellow status. It doesn't match any other rule. I tried setting the COLOR=yellow in the rule and it didn't match. Can anybody tell me why Hobbit thinks this is RED when it is really Yellow???? Thank You, -cs

Qustion regarding movement of history information.
by cbruhn2＠csc.com 29 Aug '08

29 Aug '08

To hobbit mail list, I have made a configuration alteration in my hobbit setup. Previously I had a screen layout like : SERVERS t1 t2 t3 t4 t5 SERV1 x x x x x SERV2 x x x x x Where t4 and t5 where some test done on Oracle Now we would like to have a layout as: SERVERS t1 t2 t3 SERV1 x x x SERV2 x x x ORACLE_SERVERS t4 t5 SERV1_ORA1 x x SERV2_ORA1 x x where the new server name is a combination of the server name and the ORACLE_SID. I have no problems doing this by just adding a new server-group in bb-hosts and then let the tests t4 and t5 send to the new defined hosts. My question now is, if there is a way to get the history information from server SERV1 t4 to move to the history of SERV_ORA1 t4 so we still have the old history information. We have not deleted the SERV1 t4 t5 and SERV2 t4 t5 so the history can still be seen by clicking the x-button, but as there is no more info sent to these servers/tests I would like them not to be displayed from the SERV1 and SERV2 line. If there was a way to merge, this info I would like to know. We know we can rename a test with bb but as far as I know you can't move between servers Med venlig hilsen Carl Bruhn Systemkonsulent CSC Consulting Group A/S Oldenburg Allé 1 DK-2630 Taastrup Tel: direkte 3614 5224 Tel: mobil 2923 5224 Tel: CSC Consulting Group 3614 5200 Fax:CSC Consulting Group 3614 5390 cbruhn2 at csc.com Company website http://www.csc.dk ------------------------------------------- There's more to life than Oracle.......

28 Aug '08

Hi, I have a problem making NCV graph. I have a test which send something like "Total: x" (where x is an integer). The test returns these values : 0, 0, 1, 1, 1, 0. On the graph I have 0, 0, 0.163, 1, 1, 1, 0.837 and I don't understanf why.. I'm quite new to hobbit's graph, is that an avegare value or something ? If so, is there a way to graph only what the script returns ? Thanks in advance.

When I copy over the historical data from Big Brother to Hobbit, I get clears for all the conn tests. Can I just rename the HOST.fping files to HOST.conn?

I attached here a very small patch to fix the zlib check on RedHat Enterprise Linux 5. For some reason zlib.h does not define ZLIB_VER_MAJOR and ZLIB_VER_MINOR. -- Davíð Steinn Geirsson Basis ehf. david at basis.is / (+354) 575-0419
