[hobbit] eternally purple hobbitd_client on the server box

ooookay (and i assume you mean the hobbitd_client service), that does indeed make it Go Away - but, if it ever crashes again for any reason, it will reappear red then go perma-purple again, requiring another manual Drop, yes?

Surely there's a better way to handle this..?

The hobbitd_client only issues a status message when it dies. After a restart it will go purple in a half-hour. You just need to do a "drop" of the hobbitd service.

Thanks, Larry Barber

So I'm staring at

- Program crashed

from the purple hobbitd_client status for the server, which is
very odd,
considering the server (box itself, not just Hobbit binary...) has
been
completely restarted about an hour ago.

There were some horrible, horrible disk problems (many backups and a
fsck.reiserfs later... don't ask) due to someone screwing building
power
whilst i was away and zapping this box with something like 5
restarts in
half an hour.  ugh.

However, having fixed everything else, and up and running from a clean
boot, and ONLY running hobbit.sh from the /hobbit/server dir...  i'm
confused.  Hobbitd col shows green.  There's only one hobbitd_client
running on the box, and it's the one that appeared when the server
itself was started.

Why does this happen, and how can i stop it?

thanks...
