server side flexlm test

Anna, and All actual here how I modified your script. Basicly I put a do loop around Anna version that parses a config file: params.lm. This is a list we use for an existing flexlm tracker. With entries that look like: 'MATLAB_7.0_mysys 1700 at mysys' Ok I've not the time to explain in detail but here are the key point ${LMSTATDIR}/lmstat -a -c $LIC Where $LIC is the last field on the line I actually use the first field as $MACHINE and parse out the licencesname from $MACHINE into TEST TEST is very important as this sets the column name which MUST match the graph! The very bad part of my scheme is if I want graphs I need for each license type MATLAB Maple LSF etc add/add-on 3 lines trends="................LSF= GRAPHS="..............LSF" NCV_LSF="*:GAUGE" Since my user are used to seeing a table formated like: MATLAB_7.0_mysys today# thisweeks# lastweek# ..... I set up pseudo hosts like: 0.0.0.0 MATLAB_7.0_mysys # noconn TRENDS=:*,MATLAB:MATLAB|MATLAB1 So the hobbit page looks like: MATLAB info trends MATLAB_7.0_mysys dot dot dot You got to make your graphs defs too (MATLAB MATLAB1) #!/usr/bin/bash # $Id: flexlm,v 1.10 2008-06-20 12:54:42 annaj Exp $ ################################################################## # # # flexlm client module for Hobbit monitor V 1.0 # # # # Copyright (C) 2008 Anna Jonna Armannsdottir # # # # Actually this is after the recipie given in: # # http://www.hswn.dk/hobbit/help/howtograph.html # # # # This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or # # modify it under the terms of the GNU General Public License # # as published by the Free Software Foundation; either version 2 # # of the License, or (at your option) any later version. # # # # This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful,# # but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of # # MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.

Guess I may as well ask my other burning question while I'm posting today... Based on the following hobbit-clients.cfg file, I believe I should be seeing monitoring of inetinfo.cfg and yet in the procs column I'm seeing "no process to check". What am I missing here? Thanks much!

Questions about Windows event log monitoring
by de21＠cornell.edu 18 Jul '08

18 Jul '08

Greetings. I'm still working a few things out with my Hobbit config. I'm using Hobbit 4.2 and BBWin .12. At the moment I'm trying to sort out how to filter on logs by machine. For example, none of the "LOG" statements in the following hobbit-clients.cfg file have any effect. Another related question I have is regarding the HOST name field. I'm using the hostnames specified by the "client:" tag from bb-hosts as opposed to the fully qualified name. Is that correct (it didn't seem to work when I tried the FQ name either for that matter.) I'm using centralized mode. Should I be using local mode instead for Windows event log filtering? Also, how do I specify a specific event log name? Do I use the evt file name itself? Do I need to include the path to it?

Trigger doesn't work in my client-local.cfg
by Samuel.Cai＠ehealth-china.com 18 Jul '08

18 Jul '08

Hi, We configured Hobbit to monitor a server.log file on client, one application keeps outputting a lot of data into it. Now we found a problem: a string (OutOfMemoryError) we want to check did exist in log, but wasn't reported to server, we found the root reason is Hobbit client only sends partial data to server (since data added a lot during every 5 mins). According to Hobbit's man page, this can be fixed by adding trigger: The trigger PATTERN line (optional) is used only when there is more data in the log than the maximum size set in the "log:FILENAME:SIZE" line. The "trigger" pattern is then used to find particularly interesting lines in the logfile - these will always be sent to the Hobbit server. After picking out the "trigger" lines, any remaining space up to the maximum size is filled in with the most recent entries from the logfile. "PATTERN" is a regular expression. For example in our client-local.cfg: [our server] log: /var/log/server.log:10240 trigger Error But it didn't work! I tried replacing "trigger Error" with "trigger %Error", Hobbit client still only reported partial data. I'm thinking two possible reasons: 1. The regular expression I wrote is wrong. 2. Hobbit client only checks last xxxxx bytes of monitoring file. Does anyone have met same issues? Really appreciate if you could share your thoughts and experiences. Thanks, Samuel Cai

3004-004 You must "exec" from lowest login shell

Hobbit appears to be causing this syslog message on my AIX 5.3 clients: Jul 17 08:24:42 daytona auth|security:err|error tsm: /dev/pts/2: 3004-004 You must "exec" login from the lowest login shell. It is not affecting my AIX 5.2 clients. Iptrace shows the Hobbit server checking ftp, ssh, telnet, etc. during the time of the error logged. Has anyone else seen this?

rootlogin.pl
by forums＠triadbiz.rr.com 17 Jul '08

17 Jul '08

I am trying to get the rootlogin.pl to go red on root, yellow on any other user and green if nothing is available. I have made some modifications to the script and restarted hobbit but it will never go yellow just green and red. I have modified the script from: if ( $sections{"who"} =~ /^root /m ) { $color = "red"; $summary = "ROOT login active"; $statusmsg = "&red ROOT login detected!\n\n" . $sections{"who"}; } else { $color = "green"; #$summary = "OK"; $summary = "OK" . $sections{"who"}; $statusmsg = "&green No root login active\n\n" . $sections{"who"}; } To this: if ( $sections{"who"} =~ /^root /m ) { $color = "red"; $summary = "ROOT login active"; $statusmsg = "&red ROOT login detected!\n\n " . $sections{"who"}; } elsif ( $sections{"who"} =~/^\n/) { $color = "green"; $summary = "OK"; $statusmsg = "&green No active logins\n\n" . $sections{"who"}; } else { $color = "yellow"; $summary = "USER login active"; $statusmsg = "&yellow USER login detected!" . $sections{"who"}; } Can anyone let me know what I am doing wrong? Thanks, -Josh

[hobbit] Monitoring FLEXnet License Manager
by michael.nemeth＠lmco.com 17 Jul '08

17 Jul '08

Well I got every thing to work in my own way. Anna I'll email direct if you want exactly what I did, but basicly I turned it in to a server side network type test . But two general Items, first some products/features produce string that are not unique with in the first 19 charactors; rrdtool DS names can only be 19 long. Next I decide to track max number of licenses for products/features. Some of our 30 products are hitting the max on a regular basis! I thought about a "limits feature (90% yellow ,95+ red) but could not figure a way to do this for 30 products and many more feature. By changing the awk printf from: $AWK '{printf "%.19s : %d \n", $3, $11 }' to: $AWK '{printf "M%.19s : %d \n "%.19s : %d \n", $3, $6, $3, $11 }' (I think that typed right). So I get something like : MMATHLAB : 122 MATHLAB : 99 MSIMULINK : 5 SIMULINK : 1 . . . NOTE!!!! if you do this I fairly sure your going to have to wipe out the current flexlm.rrd first. I found the rrd-status.log a great help in debuging.
