Same issue with bb, we used 1.9btf as well. In hobbit it just my 3ware script that doing this, if I use my perl wrappers it dosnt fail. It actually pulls data for 20 minutes then goes purple. It did at one time turn purple after 4 hours. I try to run the script from the console it errors out, but when I do bbcmd bash it works fine for another 20minutes or the four hours as I explained.

Very odd :-), since it works on so many other boxes.

Does it return after a while or does it stay purple after turning purple? I think the default setting would be to go purple (no report) after 20 minutes - 5 minute polls, 4 polls.

When I was using Big Brother 1.9btf I was having a lot of purples come up when the ISP was having issues. I really can't explain why as the detailed page was able to do the tests and report, but it likely was that it wasn't in a timely fashion.

I am having this weird issue with bbcmd and environment variable not staying loaded on certain machines. I have a total of 90 centos boxes and 8 of them are starting to turn purple after four test cycles, I run bbcmd bash and it works fine, but after awhile it causes my external script to error out. Any idea what may be causing this ?
