[hobbit] question about Enable/Disable under Administration tab

That's it the hobbitd.chk file. If time on the server was off, then the hobbitd process would have either cleared the items or decided that they were eligible to be disabled yet.

I *think* the list of disabled hosts/services is kept in memory. There's a checkpoint file:

server/tmp/hobbitd.chk

but I don't know what kind of brain dump that is... It may not include the disabled list.

I don't know why the full list of servers doesn't show up in your Admin->Enable/Disable menu, unless they simply haven't reported in yet.

Folks

I'm having a problem with the Enable/Disable option under the

Administration tab. Our hobbit server died overnight. Rather than replace the motherboard, we moved the disks to another Dell box, same model, and booted up. When hobbit was running again, I noticed that none of the information about devices/servers/services that had been disabled through the web browser interface were preserved. I also noticed that I can only see the list of devices/servers/services to enable/disable now if I go the individual page where the item is listed. The entire list is not showing up on the main page any more.

Can someone tell me where to find the information that is

configured from the web browser for the Enable/Disable administrative option? Is that stored in a file? And does anyone have an idea why the full list of entries from bb-hosts is not shown when I go to Enable/Disable from the main page?

We are running hobbit 4.2 on a RHEL4 server.  As far as I've

been able to determine, hobbit seems to be running normally otherwise.

Thanks for your help.

Is there a hobbit client for Red Hat's RHEL5?  The client I use

for RHEL4 has some issues running on RHEL5.
