Hi all,
I have Hobbit 4.2.0 running on Debian box and was trying numerous times to drop the "apt" and "libs" columns from the columns display for couple of client hosts with no avail. The reason I would like to drop them is they go yellow after system upgrades and started to be annoing now after some time.
I have tried doing it according to hobbit documentation:
- drop the test using the bb command
- use NOCOLUMNS statement in the bb-hosts file for each of the hosts to hide the columns
but the columns keep coming back after couple of minutes. So none of the above approaches work really.
Any idea why this is not working and what else can be done to remove the columns permanently? I have searched the forum but couldn't find appropriate answer apart from one stating config file hacking which I don't take as appropriate solution since this should be working functionality in Hobbit.
Thanks in advance for any answers and ones again thanks to everybody involved in this project for the great monitoring tool they have created :)
Basically, removing or dropping a column in hobbit is quite simple.
- Reverse the steps you took to add the column
- Issue the command to drop the column
Usually this is:
For a ext script where the column data is generated and sent by the client you will need to remove the script from the clientlaunch.cfg on the client. For a test generated by BBNET on the server, you would remove the tag from the bb-hosts file for that host.
Run the command (something like) bb 127.0.0.1 "drop machine column" eg: bb 127.0.0.1 "drop this.machine.com ftp"
