Found the problem, tested and fixed it on our Hobbit install. In the do_ifstat.c file, change:

static const char *ifstat_solaris_exprs[] = { "^[a-z]+:\\d+:([a-z0-9]+):obytes64\\s+(\\d+)", "^[a-z]+:\\d+:([a-z0-9]+):rbytes64\\s+(\\d+)" };

To this:

static const char *ifstat_solaris_exprs[] = { "^[a-z0-9]+:\\d+:([a-z0-9]+):obytes64\\s+(\\d+)", "^[a-z0-9]+:\\d+:([a-z0-9]+):rbytes64\\s+(\\d+)" };

The problem is that, before hand all interfaces only had letters in them as the base, "dmfe", "ce", "eri", "ge", "hme", etc... The T2000 has some even with "ipge", this works. The "e1000g" does not. The change above allows the interface now to have letters and numbers in it. You just need to recompile and re-install.

Any way this code change can get into the base? I didn't bother providing a diff as it's quite a minor change. This just affects the ifstat_solaris_exprs.

Thanks.

The problem is not about active interfaces but about the name "e1000g0". It will not be taked into account for creating a rrd file. This means there is no ifstat.e1000g0.rrd and therefore no "Network Traffic" graph in the trends.

I've adjusted our hobbitclient-sunos.sh script. Since that command only works in the global zone (solaris 10 or higher), at the top I have:

ZONE="global" if [ -x "/bin/zonename" ] ; then ZONE=/bin/zonename fi

Then where the kstat command is I have this, which only shows the active inferfaces on the global zone. For below solaris 10 it will consider it a global zone and it works there too: (the LINE= is suppose to be all 1 line).

if [ "${ZONE}" = "global" ] ; then echo "[ifstat]" LINE=/sbin/ifconfig -a | /bin/egrep RUNNING | /bin/awk -F':' '{printf $1"\n"}' | /bin/sort -u | /bin/awk '{printf $1"|"}' /usr/bin/kstat -p -s '[or]bytes64' | sort | egrep "${LINE}" #/usr/bin/kstat -p -s '[or]bytes64' | sort fi

Hi,

The solaris regular expression in hobbitd/rrd/do_ifstat.c (Hobbit 4.2.0) does not work for the "e1000g" Ethernet driver found on certain Sparc T2000 system.

Output of the command for ifstat:

$ /usr/bin/kstat -p -s '[or]bytes64' | sort e1000g0:0:e1000g0/0:obytes64 868907104315 e1000g0:0:e1000g0/0:rbytes64 111199067849 e1000g:0:e1000g0:obytes64 868906791580 e1000g:0:e1000g0:rbytes64 111199060552 e1000g1:0:e1000g1/0:obytes64 0 e1000g1:0:e1000g1/0:rbytes64 0 e1000g2:0:e1000g2/0:obytes64 0 e1000g2:0:e1000g2/0:rbytes64 0 e1000g3:0:e1000g3/0:obytes64 0 e1000g3:0:e1000g3/0:rbytes64 0

Hi all,

In Hobbit 4.2.0 is there a way to set up a test from an internal network to test http of an outside host, such as a DSL router? Cavaet: A proxy server is required to get out and also the DSL is a dynamic IP. This is on Solaris 10.

I currently have a line similar to this in the bbhost file. NSLOOKUP to the real host name works but ping fails (of course) since there is no host file entry.

0.0.0.0 DSL1 # noconn https://dsl1.dyndns.biz:8080

Can anyone provide a detailed example of how to accomplish this?
