I just started doing some process monitoring in Hobbit. It's working fine on all platforms except HP/UX. On HP/UX systems the status goes to Warning immediately, and when you get the details it says:
yellow Expected string COMMAND not found in ps output header
UID PID PPID C STIME TTY TIME CMD root 0 0 0 Jul 5 ? 04:10 swapper root 1 0 0 Jul 5 ? 35:35 init
I checked and sure enough, HP/UX seems to use "CMD" as the header for the ps column that the other operating systems call "COMMAND", so it isn't checking the processes right.
Is that string somewhere in hobbit that I can change, like a script, or would it be compiled into the binary?

Try the following in the client/bin/hobbitclient-hp-ux.sh file
echo "[ps]"
UNIX95=1 ps -Ax -o pid,ppid,user,stime,state,pri,pcpu,time,vsz,args
It should return the expected string command instead of cmd.

What version of HP-UX are you running? I am running 11.11 and here it works.

I was seeing this on both hp/ux 11.00 and 11.23. I fixed it by changing the line in hobbitclient-hp-ux.sh to:
UNIX95=1 ps -ef -o uid,pid,ppid,cpu,stime,tty=TTY -o time,comm
I guess you could use ps -A instead of -ef but both work. You can leave out the =TTY and second "-o" if you don't care if the TTY column is not named TTY.
