Hi guys, I was wondering if anyone could shed some light (or
share some code!) on processing the Hobbit data files to generate custom availability reports for servers/test pairs in Hobbit. I'm sure there is a way to do it, I'm just not smart enough to figure it out :-)
To better describe my situation - I have all my servers in
Hobbit, and then a database that has server details - like site, criticality, ... and I'm looking to be able to run reports like - "what was my conn test uptime for anything at site XYZ", or "what was my http uptime for our business critical apps".
I can easily query the database and load the server list into an array as the source list to process, but when it comes to knowing how to process the Hobbit data files to get the % uptime for that list of servers I am lost. I suppose in a perfect solution I'd be looking to be able to populate and array with the list of hostnames, pass that and the test name that I'm looking for to a routine, and get back a single number as the % uptime for that list of hosts for that test.
Any pointers would be appreciated!
