Hi

I'm new to the list but have been using hobbit for around 4 years.

I'm having a problem overriding the default DISK settings in hobbit-clients.cfg, no matter what I seem to add in to the file either specifying the host name directly or using a regular expression.

All other changes to the hobbit-clients.cfg file are picked up immediately. Extract from the file is below. We have upgraded to 4.2.2 today to see if that would solve the problem but unfortunately not. I've also tried running the bbcmd (output also below) and it always reports the defaults for disk. (Prior to 4.2.2 being installed this produced a seg fault for the disk test).

Hope someone can help. Thanks in advance Ben

From the comments at the start of hobbit-clients.cfg:

The special DEFAULT section can modify the built-in defaults - this must

be placed at the end of the file.

So move the DEFAULTS section to the bottom . . .
