Nortel EAI script

13 Dec '07

I have an OMEA server and my company ordered an option tagged EAI which stands for "External Alarm Interface". It requires a straight telnet session to the server and then sends out ASCII txt. I am curious if anyone has dealt with something similar to this or has any ideas about it. Listed below is an example of the data received. keep_aliveenroll_ne,172.31.128.50,0,11,154,4,5,SGSONC-OM5200-001,1enroll_ne,

multiple http test
by haresh.k.shah＠ge.com 13 Dec '07

13 Dec '07

Hi Henrik, 1) I want to have multiple http test for the same host. We have so many web servers running on the same host. Here we can't differentiate those processses by some unique pattern (otehrwise 'procs' would be helpful). So I need to do multiple http test all having different service name, so that my group of people got the mail of the service which fails individually. so that I used following in the bb-hosts file. group-only files|http1|http11 OTHER BOXES 1.2.3.4 xyz # cont=http1;http://xyz.com:8080/index.html;First cont=http11;http://xyz.com:1016;busy In hobbit-alerts.cfg : HOST=%*.xyz.com MAIL abc at xyz.com SERVICE=%http* COLOR=red DURATION>1 RECOVERED Now, all went fine if both the sites are up. but problem starts when one of the sites went down. In that case I got the "No output received from server" on the hobbit web page after clicking on that service & it went white. I need it to be red, so that I can set alert for the same. Here I am using iPlanet as web server & Jboss as application server. 1016 is the port where jboss listens. My concern is why the test become white instead of red, if it didn't find the page only? Manually by typing the URL in IE it gives "page can't be displayed" If I use http test (without cont=) then it went red. I understand that might be hobbit tried to find out the contents on the web page. ( am i right?) but then as i mentioned earlier I might not be able to set seperate http test. please suggest the work around. 2) Another thing I want to mention that initially I made two tests - http1 & http11. When I removed cont=http1;http://xyz.com:8080/index.html;First from bb-hosts file and replaced http11 with http1 then old data is not refreshed! I restarted hobbit server also. but the old data remains on the web page and can't be refreshed(even time is also showing the last successful refreshed on the web page). Actually now on web page i should able to see the result of - http://xyz.com:1016 for http1 test as i removed old http1 test & replaced it with http11 test. But still I am able to see result of - http://xyz.com:8080/index.html. Even though I already removed it from the bb-hosts file. can we call it as bug? Or please suggest me, if I am missing something. ~ Haresh

[hobbit] qpage.pl
by Keller_Liora＠emc.com 12 Dec '07

12 Dec '07

Hi, The script qpage.pl works when I specify a HOST, but when I try to page hosts with the option PAGE, list the page/subpage/subparent the qpage.pl will not page the hosts under the PAGE list. However, I do see the hosts listed in the hobbit notifications.log file, but, the pages do not get listed in qpage.log Eric, I am trying to simplify my hobbit-alerts.cfg script, I would like not to list all the hosts (hundreds) just list the PAGE they are under. Is there a way to get around it with your script. Thanks, Liora > _____________________________________________ >

I have the BB NT client running sending data from a windows 2003 host to the hobbit server. Running tcpdump I see data being sent from the window host, and then I see data received by the hobbit server host. Data does not display on the web page and I can't locate the host centric data (disk/process/etc) anywhere on the hobbit server. I have globs of UNICES reporting in fine.

I understand that might be hobbit tried to find out the contents on the web page. ( am i right?) but then as i mentioned earlier I might not be able to set seperate http test. please suggest the work around. 2) Another thing I want to mention that initially I made two tests - http1 & http11. When I removed cont=http1;http://xyz.com:8080/index.html;First from bb-hosts file and replaced http11 with http1 then old data is not refreshed! I restarted hobbit server also. but the old data remains on the web page and can't be refreshed(even time is also showing the last successful refreshed on the web page). Actually now on web page i should able to see the result of - http://xyz.com:1016 for http1 test as i removed old http1 test & replaced it with http11 test. But still I am able to see result of - http://xyz.com:8080/index.html. Even though I already removed it from the bb-hosts file. can we call it as bug? Or please suggest me, if I am missing something. Thanks & Regards, Haresh Shah DC*318-0438
