greetings,
i have been getting hobbit alerts about processes not running, having a look at the process list shows an incomplete 'ps' section.
nothing searched on the mailing list related to this issue as such.
running the following on the hostdata file on the hobbit server showed the following:
egrep '^\[.*\]$' 1191352319 [date] [uname] [osversion] [uptime] [who] [df] [mount] [free] [ifconfig] [route] [netstat] [ports] [ifstat] [ps]
doing this on other files shows me that more sections after 'ps' should be in the file. the data seems to be cut short.
this only happens on occasion, i cant really pin it down to certain times of the day (if/when backups take place on the network causing a lot more traffic) either.
there is nothing particularly helpful in hobbitclient logs. on the client side i am getting the following in hobbitclient.log, but not at the time when the issue occurred.
2007-10-01 21:16:46 Whoops ! bb failed to send message - timeout
im wondering if it is a problem on the client before it sends the data to the server, or if it is a network congestion issue maybe. any tips on how i should go about diagnosing this would be helpful.
thanks.
