ftp/mssql red all the time. fine with previous version.
Hi,
I have a few questions, I hope someone can help me.
I've been using Hobbit for almost 2 years now and it was version 4.2 on Ubuntu 6.06.
Last week I decided to replace the whole thing and installed the latest 4.3.0-beta2 from a deb package on Ubuntu 8.04.1.
Since then I have some problems.
ftp is always "red" on both servers I have this check on.
And so is mssql I defined in bb-services like this:
[mssql]
options telnet
port 1433
this also happens on both servers I check.
I still have my old server and both the tests are working great. The configuration was copied from the old bb-services and bb-hosts files.
The environment (firewalls, etc.) had not changed.
At first I suspected the manually added services, but I also have this:
[port80]
options telnet
port 80
and it works great.
The other question is regarding the linux hobbit client. I have a cluster of Squids behind a pfSense firewall.
There's a hobbit client installed on every server.
With the old Hobbit version, the Squids would sometimes transmit a truncated msg. But I never gave it too much thought.
But with the new version of Xymon, I see those Squids constantly with cpu purple, or worse - disks red. Of course, after a few minutes/hours it comes back to normal,
but why would it happen in the first place? By the way, regarding the disks:
red Mon Jul 20 23:32:36 IDT 2009 - Filesystems NOT ok &red 29337532 8% / (2309340% used) has reached the PANIC level (95%) &red 15009444 58% /var/spool/squid (20533208% used) has reached the PANIC level (95%)

/dev/sdb1 35542652 20533208 15009444 58% /var/spool/squid
How is this even possible?
Anyone has any idea? I'd really appreciate it. Thanks.
Lenny.

Wild guess: There are firewall rules which allow old xymon server IP to connect to the ports in question, while there are no such firewall rules for the new xymon server IP -

Hi,
thanks for answering.
I wish it was that easy:)
it's not possible though, cause it's the same exact machine, where I just replaced the hard drives, leaving it with the same IP and gateway.
Not just that, but I can telnet to these ports in question from the server itself, and there's no timeout or anything: the connection is immediate. It seems to me that the problem is in Xymon itself.
