[hobbit] 4.2-alpha - disk tests

Configuring a limit of "yellow at 2 GB free" requires that Hobbit can interpret the absolute values reported by the client, not just the relative amount of free space. I don't know if there's a good way of doing that, except to embed (more) knowledge about the various df's into Hobbit. And I'm not terribly keen on doing that.

mmmm.... can you put a configuration line for this? hda_blocks=1024 (or 512)....
The clients appear to be configured to report in Kb, so is it not better to have something that will work at the Kb value with a caveat that if the Admin changes the output of the df command, then the resultant check limits will no longer be valid.

Solaris version of "df" has a flag "-b" to report back the number of bytes available on the slice. Is this what is required?

How about we just add it as a configurable option in hobbit-clients.cfg?
HOST=foo DISK_MET=gb (or 512 or mb or gb) DISK * 95 98 DEFAULT DISK_MET=kb
Something like that. That way in a mixed environment you can specify what metric the df output is in. ?
