The devmon.cfg is default. The correct path to the bbhosts file is in the cfg file.
Not too sure about creating the database though cos the installation notes don't specify for a single node installation. Am I incorrect ?

This was a single node installation. Do I have to create the database ?

Start a instance of devmon during the startup of the system (or by hand with the command /usr/local/devmon/devmon )
this will get the snmp information from your hosts.
Start devmon in the cron to get changes of the bb-hosts file with the --readbbhosts
this will update the devmon database.

/usr/local/devmon/devmon
I think it needs to be put in the CRONTAB also.
