Hi,
I had the same issue when I installed from RPM's in my case, the actual server was installed but not the client. Hobbit client needs to be installed on the local server to monitor those things. The RPM's I used separated the client and server and I had to install both to get it to work. But this behavior is different when you install from source I believe. Hope this helps.

I've now installed hobbit on the production server, and added the clients. Everything looks ok, but the server (defined by default as localhost in bb-hosts) does not seem to monitor its own cpu, disk, memory, ports and processes.
I'm pretty sure my test lab server monitored those by default. Or is there anything specific one should do on the server itself? I may have confused myself...
Thanks.
