Hi there,
I've got one problem with the hobbit-clients.cfg
At the top of this file, defaults are defined:
DEFAULT LOAD 3.0 7.0 DISK * 86 92 [... and others ...]
Below there are single hosts defined (mostly PROC checking), the defaults for LOAD and DISK were fine for all monitored Hosts over the last years(!! ;) ), but now, I want to monitor bigger storage spaces, where a notify level of 86% means 5 or so TB free, which is much too early ... , so I've added the following:
HOST=thisbiggerstorage.fqdn.tld DISK /data 95 98
But, this value is never used, the /data Mountpoints warnlevel stays at 86%
For other Hosts, I've tried the very same with the LOAD keyword, because these hosts utilize a lot of cores and can go upto 16 without any problem. But the very same: the new value is never getting uses. 3.0 / 7.0 from the DEFAULT section stays...
Restarting the hobbit server processes don't show up any effect.
Could someone please shed some light on what am I doing wrong?
Man page for hobbit-clients.cfg says:
"The entire file is evaluated from the top to the bottom, and the first match found is used. So you should put specific settings first, and the generic ones last."
Just move the default (i.e. "generic") setting to the bottom of the file and you should be all good.
