My first problem was that the config the alert for a specific host. The only way I've found is to configure alerts on the localclient.cfg of each client. If not, any information could be monitored by the server (I used to configure hobbit-clients.cfg & bb-hosts on the server but it never works :-/)

Don't use the local client configuration, if you can avoid it. Since you do not provide any details about what exactly it is that "never works" I cannot help you, but I would suggest looking into this first.

I started the installation on the server by declaring a new client server on 'server/etc/bb-hosts' and then configure 'server/etc/hobbit-clients.cfg' The client never retrieved me any information except the "conn", "info" & "trends" status provided by the server itself! I decided to re-install the hobbit client with configuration on the client itself : It worked each time : all extra columns appeared according processes I'm running!

You *are* sending the client data to a Hobbit server, not the BB server? BB servers are not compatible with the Hobbit client.

I'm not running any BB servers or client now. I'm trying to migrate to Hobbit

...

I installed the client on SunOS, it starts fine, I've configured the localclient.cfg on the client, bb-hosts on the server. The only thing monitored is the "conn"... looks at the Sun localclient.cfg :

Please try to run the client(s) in the normal mode, that should give you all of the standard columns, without requiring any configruation.

Well, it's not, it gives only "conn", "info" & "trends". Only re-install the hobbit client with a local conf provided me the extra columns like "cpu", "disk", "ntp", "procs".

Any ideas why Linux clients retrieve information to the Hobbit server only with local conf and why Sun & Windows doesn't retrieve extra informations like "cpu", "disk", "ntp" according the configuration I put bellow ?

 Thanks!

Sun localclient.cfg :

I have the same problem with BBWin, here is the bbwin.cfg :

Well done David, it fixed my BBwin problem.

I only have to find a way to fix the one for SunOS. I installed the client just like I did on Linux (compilation) but the client doesn't retrieve any information to the server :-/

Johan,

For your BBWIN client, you have not specified the Hobbit server.

    <bbwin>
      <setting name="bbdisplay" value="yourfirstbbdisplay:1984" />
      <!-- <setting name="bbdisplay"

value="yoursecondbbdisplay:port" />-->

You will also need to edit the registry, per the BBWIN help file, to set the correct host name on each machine.

In your hobbit-clients.cfg, add *above* the DEFAULT:

HOST=yourhost MEMPHYS 99 100 MEMACT 99 100

This will set the thresholds for that host so that you wont get yellow until 99% and red at 100%

Hi All,

I have a server who's memory keeps going Yellow:

Mon Oct 15 14:50:27 PDT 2007 - Memory low

Memory Used Total Percentage green Physical 7820M 8055M 97% yellow Actual 7341M 8055M 91% green Swap 0M 8055M 0%

And so it is; these numbers do match the free numbers. But it's not really all being used, it's just the way Linux works.

I'm really only using ~1.5 Gb of 8 and the rest is 'Slab' - which is kept around by the kernel as a cache. But I have no Swap used so we're good.

So how do I get Hobbit to see that and relax (not go to Yellow) until we start using Swap?
