Enabling WML for blackberry viewing
by josh＠imaginenetworksllc.com 12 Nov '07

12 Nov '07

First off, is WML the best option I've got to make Hobbit viewable by black berry phones (or any PDA/phone?) Secondly, I read in the bb-hosts man page that I need to start bbgen with --wml. Now in etc/hobbitlaunch.cfg it has CMD bbgen $BBGENOPTS --report. Should I add --wml to the end of that or stick it in the variable BBGENOPTS that is made in etc/hobbitserver.cfg? Finally, once bbgen kicks into gear with --wml how do I make the page for the devices to view? WML:[+|-]testname[,[+|-]testname] <--- confuses my poor self =( -- Josh Luthman Office: 937-552-2340 Direct: 937-552-2343 1100 Wayne St Suite 1337 Troy, OH 45373 Those who don't understand UNIX are condemned to reinvent it, poorly. --- Henry Spencer

Migrating Hobbit from one server to the next
by josh＠imaginenetworksllc.com 09 Nov '07

09 Nov '07

I am planning on migrating Hobbit to another server (the one it is on now is just a test box). The only thing I should need to do is tar the ~hobbit directory, move it over and start it up, correct? Linux will figure out the modules for hardware and the IP will work on that leg of the network. Currently the destination server is running BB which is why I need to have downtime to a minimum! Thanks for any advice!

[hobbit] on-going snapshot issue
by david.gore＠verizonbusiness.com 09 Nov '07

09 Nov '07

Since my other issues with 4.2.0/allinone did not get any respones, please let me know if there is going to be a way to turn OFF descriptions in bb2.html in the snapshot? Time is short and it is very tedious to compile a new snapshot daily hoping it is changed. I did look through the documentation, the first time it appeared, and I couldn't find anything Again here is what it looks like: Host1 (My host type:This host is a standalone server for the xyz group) conn cpu disk files info memory msgs oradb orasys procs prtdiag trends vxvm Host2 conn cpu disk files info memory ... trends Host3 conn cpu disk files info memory ... trends Host4 (Part of the cluster foo, contact support for help 123-5555) conn cpu disk files info memory msgs oradb orasys procs ... trends We use our descriptions in the info column and they are needed, so I cannot just remove all descriptions and comments from bb-hosts. Any help would be appreciated. Do people like the descriptions on bb2.html or is just my config that has done this with the snapshot? If it wasn't for 'Whoops ! bb failed to send message - timeout', stale alerts, and hung memory segments and semaphores I would just wait until the first pre-release or full release. Pease help.

hobbit not sending on email alerts
by paulehr＠gmail.com 09 Nov '07

09 Nov '07

Hi everyone, Long time listener, first time caller (or maybe second time ;) ). I seem to be having a weird issue with hobbit not sending out email alerts. I have the following rules set up (emails changed to protect the innocent). I did have macros setup for this and I thought it was part of the problem, but it was not. PAGE=oracle MAIL email1 at test.com SERVICE=conn,oracle,disk COLOR=red REPEAT=15m RECOVERED MAIL email2 at test.com SERVICE=conn,oracle,disk COLOR=red REPEAT=15m RECOVERED I sent out a test alert using bbcmd hobbitd_alerts --test atgtier2app1 oracle which is a host on my oracle page and it shows that the rules match and that it sends on the emails 2007-11-07 15:42:52 Using default environment file /usr/lib/hobbit/server/etc/hobbitserver.cfg 00030883 2007-11-07 15:42:52 send_alert atgtier2app1:oracle state Paging 00030883 2007-11-07 15:42:52 Matching host:service:page 'atgtier2app1:oracle:oracle' against rule line 131 00030883 2007-11-07 15:42:52 *** Match with 'PAGE=oracle' *** 00030883 2007-11-07 15:42:52 Matching host:service:page 'atgtier2app1:oracle:oracle' against rule line 132 00030883 2007-11-07 15:42:52 *** Match with 'MAIL email1 at test.com SERVICE=conn,oracle,disk COLOR=red REPEAT=15m RECOVERED' *** 00030883 2007-11-07 15:42:52 Mail alert with command 'mailx -s "Hobbit [12345] atgtier2app1:oracle CRITICAL (RED)" email1 at test.com' 00030883 2007-11-07 15:42:52 Matching host:service:page 'atgtier2app1:oracle:oracle' against rule line 133 00030883 2007-11-07 15:42:52 *** Match with 'MAIL email2 at test.comSERVICE=conn,oracle,disk COLOR=red REPEAT=15m RECOVERED' *** 00030883 2007-11-07 15:42:52 Mail alert with command 'mailx -s "Hobbit [12345] atgtier2app1:oracle CRITICAL (RED)" email2 at test.com' I verified that my server can send mail out by sending a test message using mailx to myself and I did receive it. I even took my troubleshooting a step further and ran tcpdump on the network interface looking for anything going to the remote mail server and saw SMTP traffic when i sent my test message, but not my hobbitd_alert --test message. At this point I am scratching my head. Is there is anything in hobbit to debug why messages are not being sent out? I tried looking at some of the hobbit and postfix logs, but nothing really indicated any problems. The hobbit server is running Linux (ubuntu 7.04 server) and hobbit 4.2.0 Thanks for the help! -Paul
