Feedback from running 4.1.1 snapshot on FreeBSD 5.4
Hi all,
Few things that we notice :
- Error during the make install
cd etcfiles; ../../build/merge-lines hobbitcgi.cfg /home/hobbit/server/etc/hobbitcgi.cfg cd etcfiles; ../../build/merge-sects hobbitlaunch.cfg /home/hobbit/server/etc/hobbitlaunch.cfg larrdstatus=rrdstatus larrddata=rrddata merge-sects in free(): error: junk pointer, too high to make sense Abort trap (core dumped) gmake[1]: *** [install-cfg] Error 134 gmake[1]: Leaving directory `/root/software/hobbit-4.1.1/hobbitd' gmake: *** [install-hobbitd] Error 2
Workaround : Change manualy the occurence of larrd to rrd in hobbitlaunch.cfg
bbhostgrep with the following tags:
we have a lot of nokia appliance that we poll for snmp via the snmp script, the devices don't reply for icmp, so we need to have this line in our bb-hosts
x.x.x.x nokiavpn # testip noconn snmp
when we execute bbhostgrep snmp, it return no value. The only way actually is to put
x.x.x.x nokiavpn # testip noping snmp
but we would like to not have the conn test (we need testip as the boxes don't have a fqdn)
hobbit client
About the disk, The release 5.4 got devfs (2 entries show 100%), so the line with df should look like: df -H -tnonfs,nullfs,cd9660,procfs,devfs
Not quite sure about vmstat, In freebsd you can use -w for wait -c for count, so should it be vmstat -w 300 -c 2 instead of vmstat 300 2, also the sleep command in Freebsd take argument in second so sleep 5 is for 5 second , was it expected to wait 5 minutes ?
Thanks for this great product, Laurent Grilli

Just as an addition to this, I had to do exactly the same thing when trying to update 4.0.4 to 4.1.1 on my Solaris 9 x86 server. I can't recall the exact error, but I did get a core dump too (probably long since deleted :-)

Think I've got that one nailed down now. There was a completely bogus free() in merge-sects, amazing it hasn't show up in a lot more places.

I cannot reproduce this. The only reason I can think of is if you have the BBLOCATION setting active, then it would ignore this host because there is no NET:xxx on that entry. In that case, either add the NET:xxx tag, or run "bbhostgrep --test-untagged snmp"
Not quite sure about vmstat, In freebsd you can use -w for wait -c for count, so should it bevmstat -w 300 -c 2 instead of vmstat 300 2,
But doesn't the other syntax work ? It ought to, since that is a pretty universal vmstat command.
also the sleep command in Freebsd take argument in second so sleep5 is for 5 second , was it expected to wait 5 minutes ?
:-) That "sleep 5" really is intended to just sleep for 5 seconds. It's a safeguard to make sure the previous "vmstat 300" command really has completed.
