We have had several complete failures of the hobbit client when it hangs trying to look at remote file systems. Do you think the -l option should be the default? We typically do not care about NFS mounted or NIS mounted file systems although others may. Of course when Hobbit hangs ALL the tests go purple and you are unaware when it happens in the middle of the night.
From the Solaris man page:
-l Report on local file systems only. This option is used
only for mounted file systems. It cannot be used with
the -o option.I was also wondering if 'bbcmd' could be upgraded to accommodate different home directories? It appears to use the home directory that you compiled it with which works most of the time except when you copy bbcmd to a client host with a different home directory.
