For kicks I decided to just add a few names that were in the include file to the bb-host file and comment out the include line.

Now they work.

Am I using the include file the wrong way?

I am running hobbit 4.1.2p1 on a Solaris Sparc.

I want to monitor my entire clients to determine if that are up and connected.

With a script I created a file of all clients for each subnet from a database that includes all hosts. I run this when I add or remove hosts in the database.

I then added an "include filename-of-clients" to the bb-hosts. The following is an example of the include file.

128.999.3.40 abel.xxx.yyy.edu 128.999.3.39 agnesi.xxx.yyy.edu 128.999.3.212 ahlfors.xxx.yyy.edu 128.999.3.91 apostol-lp.xxx.yyy.edu 128.999.3.26 archimedes.xxx.yyy.edu

My bb-hosts looks as follows

page subnet3 Subnet3 include /homes/bb/hobbit/bb-host-include/bb-host-list-3

The web page is created for the clients and it has "conn info trends" header for each client. Clients that are not pingable are marked red.

I also have entries in the data/rrd/hostname.domain.edu.

PROBLEM:

The problem is that when I click on any icon for a host, I get a page that says "No such host".

What have I forgotten?

Robert
