I have hobbit setup and am working on a script to monitor all my platforms (redhat, solaris, irix, tru64, windows, etc). I have the script running as a test on my local, windows workstation. The status seems to be reporting properly from the script through the bb2.html page on to notifications. What I want to see next is a graph of these values. The current value is the simulated one minute load percentage from windows. I know this value is being sent to hobbitd since I'm getting notifications based on the colors (clear/green/yellow/red) I'm sending to hobbitd.
Do I need to cycle hobbitd?

I have found the hobbit-graph.cfg file. I'm trying to plot the load percentage for the cpu. I have one line that's going in like:
status HOST.cpu green 12:00:50 up 7 days, 20:38, 0 users, load average: 20 0 0
Then another line that is:
data HOST.cpu 20
I'm wanting the 20 above, 20% of the cpu, to be plotted.

You shouldn't need to touch anything here.

I have only used the bbwin client for windows (bbwin.sf.net), not the Big Brother NT client. The bbwin client reports CPU usage to hobbit in the correct format for it to be graphed.
Please provide some real details of what you are running on this client, if you're not running bbwin. On all the unix hosts, the hobbit client should be used ...

I am in a small development site that has one of many different platforms. I have written a script in tcl that should/will run on all platforms to gather the monitoring data. The tcl script is what I mention above. I'm happy to release my tcl script once it is complete.

I am using the tcl script I mention above. I know the script is working as I do get status messages from the tcl client into hobbitd on one of my linux boxes.

I like the bbwin on windows, but I want to run the same client everywhere, hence the tcl script.

I would like to use the hobbit client, but I do not want to compile the client on every box. Compiling the client on every box is one of the few weaknesses I find in hobbit. The hobbit clients do work on the three boxes where they are used, graphs appear, etc. Status messages, events, etc., do appear on hobbit from my tcl script, but graphs do not. I'm using a recent hobbit, if not the latest. Hobbitd runs on a linux box (fedora core 5). The other two linux boxes are of red hat flavor of different versions. When in full production the client will report the status of irix, hp-ux, solaris, windows xp, windows xp 64-bit, mac os x, dec, etc. I am happy to release my script when it is complete.

Hi all,
Anyone had any luck stopped acknowledged alerts propagating up? If so how?
Thanks, Jason
Did you try the NOPROPACK tag in bb-hosts?
Thanks, Larry Barber

Ironically I have the opposite problem. When I ack an alert on a sub page, the ack does not propogate up to the status on the main page(s). I sent a message about this a week or so ago, and someone else indicated they had the same problem, but thats all that came of it.

How have you set up these subpages? Little embarrassing really I used the noprop stuff to stop yellow message alerts propagating just never thought of looking for the nopropack :( anyways I've used subpage, subparent, alternate pagesets etc. and never had a problem with errors not propagating.

Our layout is pretty simple (no subpages/subparent/alternate pageset): from the main view, we have only on level of pages.
Main view
title Unil Services
page unilServAAL AAI, AD, LDAP title Unil Services group-only auth|conn|ldap Unil AAI, AD, LDAP page unilServDNS DNS title Unil Services group-only conn|dns Unil DNS page unilServMail Mail title Unil Services group-only conn|http|imaps|pop3s|smtp|webmail Unil Mail page unilServWeb Web title Unil Services group-only conn|http Unil Web title Academic Services page acadBackupServ Backup
title Academic Services
group-only conn|nsr Backup
and so on...
An acked red alert from any page (ex. conn test on unilServDNS) is not propagated on the main view (red icon for unilServDNS summary stays unacked)

Can you send me a screenshot of your layout? (can of course black out names/IP addresses if you wish) also is this your bb-hosts file?

Seems the data is not making it to rrd. Is there a log file somewhere that might show why the data is not parsed or not making it to rrd?
