News about my problem. Moved to RHEL5.3 32bit with PAE kernel, with the same architecture, data on NFS, bonding and veritas cluster like before. The problem is dissappear.

So, I repeat, just on 64bit RHEL => 5.0 seems appear the bug.

So, you need to check your storage system.

Well, like I told, the problem persist also on local disk with 64bit.

My workstation is running RHEL 5.2 on a Sun Ultra 40, and Hobbit

and I've never seen this.

5.2 on sun, the kernel is different of amd/intel Which version of kernel are you using?

No, Intel/AMD makes no difference, x86_64 (EM64T for Intel, amd64 for AMD) vs i386 does, but:

In the production environment, my hobbit on RHEL5 x86_64 is only doing polling/testing/proxying (the display is on a RHEL4 i386).

hum...maybe problem related to bbgen?

Not bbgen itself, as you said you get "Status not available", which is not a static html page from bbgen, but usually from bb-hostsvc.sh (calling hobbitsvc.cgi).

You may first want to deteremine whether the cgi is timing out speaking to hobbitd, or if there is some other problem.

Mine was a bbdisplay and bbnet on the same server.

Yes, in my production environment, problems with hobbitd on the RHEL5 x86_64 box would not result in any noticeable problems, but again, my workstation doesn't exhibit this problem (and I usually have about 10 tabs open on different hobbit pages, including static and cgi ones, looking at my workstation's hobbit install).
