You didn't specify what verison of the client you are running on SLES. This might have been fixed in newer clients. In any event the problem is that under SLES, the uptime command shows
‘day’ for uptime > 24 hours && <48 hours; eg, 1 day
‘days’ for uptime > 48 hours; eg 3 day*s*
The server is looking for ‘days’
You can modify the [uptime] section in ~hobbit/client/bin/hobbitclient-linux.sh and added a perl
Command to change ‘ day ‘ to ‘ days ‘.
echo "[uptime]"
uptime | perl -pe "s/^(.*) day (.*)/\1 days \2/"

SuSE systems report uptime as being up "1 day" rather than "1 days" as other Linuxes do. This seems to cause Xymon to skip the trends graphing during the period from 24 to 48 hours after a machine has been rebooted. No big deal, but one of my administrators is rather anally retentive about that sort of thing,
Sample from the top of "top" on a SuSE box:
top - 08:15:59 up 1 day, 12:40, 0 users, load average: 0.48, 0.97, 0.84 Tasks: 57 total, 1 running, 56 sleeping, 0 stopped, 0 zombie Cpu(s): 5.0%us, 1.0%sy, 0.0%ni, 91.8%id, 1.6%wa, 0.1%hi, 0.2%si, 0.3%st
Mem: 2047752k total, 2038620k used, 9132k free, 98792k buffers Swap: 514696k total, 488k used, 514208k free, 630832k cached
