[hobbit] sending client side data

Not really, that sends the predetermined colours, what I was thinking is more sending the output of command x and then have hobbit generate the webpage.

Any ideas? Jason.

Henrick showed us (http://www.hswn.dk/hobbiton/2007/01/msg00487.html) I'm just curious if anyone knows how to send data from the client side to the server the same way the standard hobbit client tests do, looking at bb I'm guessing either bb data or bb client, but when I run bb <hobbitIP> "client <hostname>.<os>" nothing happens and the man pages don't mention how to actually send the data etc.

I have a Hobbit client install running a BigIP check. In client/etc/clientlaunch.cfg:

  [bigip-v4]
      ENVFILE $HOBBITCLIENTHOME/etc/hobbitclient.cfg
      CMD $HOBBITCLIENTHOME/ext/bigip/bigip3.sh
      LOGFILE $HOBBITCLIENTHOME/logs/hobbitclient.log
      INTERVAL 5m

After doing what it needs to do to get the status, the script sends off a status message to the server like this:

  MACHINE=`echo $NAME | sed -e 's/\./,/g'`
  MESSAGE="status $MACHINE.$TEST $COLOR `date`<P><font size=+2>The

$BIGIP BigIP says: $NAME $TEST is $STATE</font>" $BB $BBDISP $MESSAGE

Is that what you're looking for??
