Tried that as well and could not get anything. Do I have to stop and restart the server after each change?

Thank you,

I believe your problem is that the configuration reads top to bottom. Your default configuration catches the hosts before your specified configuration below the default. Try switching the two around.

All,

I'm having problems with this as well. I'm able to get the following as they are the defaults:

Conn

CPU

Disk

Info

SSH

I can't get the following:

Files

MSGS

Ports

Procs

I'm able to get them to work on the Hobbit server itself, but I can't seem to figure out how to get the same information from the clients. I installed the Hobbit client from the package and the servers see each other. This is what is in the hobbit-clients.cfg file:

DEFAULT

    # These are the built-in defaults.

file /var/log/syslog SIZE>0 MTIME<7200 TRACK yellow **This does not show up at all

All the above files are in the location listed. I'm guessing that they don't show up because of the settings listed.

This is what is in the "client-local.cfg" file (as well as the defaults):

[wfs-bkp01-atl]

file:/var/log/

Both of the above files are located on the Hobbit server. If I read the files right on the client side there is not anything that I need to configure. I could be wrong about this.

Thank you,

HI,

Thanks. It worked.

      Is there any way to display contents of file or it displays

only size, timestamp, file type, permissions. When I made following entry on client-local.cfg

file:ls -l -t /var/adm/sa/sar*:4096

it outputs

But file is there. Do I have to change or add anything to display the contents of sar file or it checks only size, timestamp, permission etc.

Your client-local.cfg syntax is wrong. client-local tells hobbit what to upload, hobbit-client tells Hobbit how to use what it uploaded. You have the two files configured the same, which is wrong. Also, you don't need anything on the client side if you're running Hobbit in the typical manner. The client-local.cfg data is downloaded from the server to the client automatically.

Try something more like this:

Client-local.cfg

[nj1db200pt]

file:/home/monitor/test

file:/var/log/

log:/var/adm/messages:4096

The default copies of all these files are commented heavily at the top showing all this syntax.

On Client side

HOST=nj1db200pt

 FILE  /home/monitor/test mtime>600 red

 DIR %^/var/log TRACK

 LOG /var/adm/messages  WARNING COLOR=yellow

Do I have to edit any other files. or I am doing something wrong. I can see any output. I can see only white icon.help me monitorl logs and messages
