I've been trying to use bbwin to send a status message to our hobbit server (we haven't upgraded to Xymon yet). BBWin is generating the file and putting it in the tmp folder and it disappears after a few seconds. And that's the last I see of the message. Nothing shows up on the server.
Is there any way to see incoming messages to the server or a log that might tell me why it didn't take the message?
My script checks the diskpart and then reports the status of a Windows raid to hobbit in this format:
status server,group.raid green Thu 03/12/2015 13:05:13.16 RAID is Okay
Volume 0 C NTFS Mirror 931 GB Healthy Boot Volume 1 System Rese NTFS Mirror 100 MB Healthy System
Any direction would be very helpful.

Figured it out, it has to have the status color on the first line:
green status server,group.raid green Thu 03/12/2015 13:05:13.16 RAID is Okay
Volume 0 C NTFS Mirror 931 GB Healthy Boot Volume 1 System Rese NTFS Mirror 100 MB Healthy System
As soon as I appended that, it worked just fine.

Interesting. I wonder if there's a chance of some newline conversion issues going on...
Which version of hobbit are you using?

We're running version 4.3.0~beta2.dfsg-9.1ubuntu0.1
It almost seems like I could send a status by just putting a color in a file with the name of the file being the test and it would report that to Hobbit.
If that's the case, it will make creating externals much simpler.
