More information.. It looks like the hobbitd daemon is dying sporadically with the following entries repeating each time in hobbitlaunch.log:

Looks like this problem is also resolved by waiting a few minutes.

I am getting a sporadic problem with the latest release (RC4). The bb-hostsvc.cgi starts returns the message "Status not available" for all services. After a restart of the hobbitd daemon, everything is back to normal. There doesn't seem to be a pattern on this one yet. Looking at every hour or so. Note that I am running on Solaris 2.8.
