Hi All,
I'm setting up Hobbit for the first time (v4.2.0) At the moment we're using Big Sister, but we're looking for something with better performance and ease of use.
I have set up some tests on several hosts. One of the checks I'm using is the https check. That all works well, a green smiley is displayed. The neat thing with the https check is that it also checks the expirydate of your SSL certificate (sslcert test). Here's what I'm looking for:
I want to remove the sslcert test for a certain number of hosts. We use a traffic manager that holds all the real SSL certificates, we're using a self signed, expired certificate on the hosts in question. Hobbit warns me with a red sslcert status that the certificate has expired. I know I can disable the the test (turns the smiley into a blue one), but that's not what I want.
I have als tried to drop the sslcert test (server/bin/bb localhost "drop hostname sslcert") and add the NOCOLUMNS:sslcert tag for the host in question in the bb-hosts file. The NOCOLUMNS tag works for other statusses (white) but when a status is red, I can't seem to remove the sslcert test. It keeps coming back in a short while after I dropped the test with the bb command.
Have I overseen something here?
Thanks,
Dennis
