ahhh, my bad, sorry. I see what may be the problem:

MESSAGE The message parameter is the message to be sent across to the Hobbit server. Messages must be enclosed in quotes, but by doing so they can span multiple lines. The maximum size of a message is defined by the maximum allowed length of your shell's commandline, and is typically 8-32 KB.

If you need to send longer status messages, you can specify "@" as the message: bb will then read the status message from its stdin.

Sorry, Cheers!

I searched but found nothing relevant that fixed problem:

OS version: hpux 11.23 on Itanium 64 bit Hobbit version 4.2.0

We have over 100 some servers running hobbit client but only one with exhibiting behaviour. I replaced the client, upped significantly MAXLINES on server and client, as well as MAXMSG_STATUS on both. Problem persists

For PROC testing, the entire PS output is not searched, failing to find PROCs that I have defined: (in this case failing to find the last process "envd")
