After upgrading to the 4.1.1-1 debian package, I thought "great, I can just stop the BB client and see what happens"...
Well, not much happened, except the status logs stopped updating.
It looks like there might be a few things missing:
- a init script to start the client
The Hobbit client is automatically installed and activated when a Hobbit server is installed.
Nope, it wasn't... or did I do something wrong?
Client-only installations are described in the README.CLIENT file included with Hobbit 4.1.
- Documentation, this file is missing in the deb package, and probably other docs might be missing as well, so it makes me feel better as to why I haven't got the client working yet...
Also, it would be really nice if we had a deb package which included just the client. Then, we could have a hobbit-server package and a hobbit-client package. We don't need to install the hobbit server on every machine we want to monitor, just the client, and we retain the advantage of using deb package management features...
Apart from that, I've had no problems with 4.1.1 (but I didn't have any problems with 4.0.4 either :)
