I have over 100 systems that run just fine. But, last Sat night one system stop updating 3 rrd files. Here is the directory listing.

When I look at the cpu column, I see normal system info including a bottom line of loads, but the load graph is blank. I tried moving the la.rrd file to la.rrd_org but never saw a new one created. The same goes for procs.rrd and users.rrd.

I looked at the log files on the server and client and do not see anything.

I also did a rrdtool dump on la.rrd and it showed data up to the last update and did not give any kind of error.

Does anyone have a clue where I need to look?

Thank you,

Tom

Removed rrdtool-devel-1.3-0.1.beta1.fc8 rrdtool-1.3-0.1.beta1.fc8 rrdtool-perl-1.3-0.1.beta1.fc8

and installed rrdtool-1.2.23-3.fc5 rrdtool-perl-1.2.23-3.fc5 rrdtool-devel-1.2.23-3.fc5

Now everything works - just got to stop yum updating it - when I get time I may look into this further but maybe usefull information for all you people thinking of moving to FC8 (knew I should have installed ubuntu).

Suppose that's what happens when beta software is used...

Just finishing a night shift so I'll post a quick question see if anyone has had the same.

Basically I've just installed our second hobbit server on FC8 (the original/first is on FC5)

All my RRD files are being generate and formatted correctly but via the web interface (hobbitgraph.sh) none of the rrd graphs are generated (disk, cpu, memory ...)

The rrd files and hobbitgraph.sh have the correct permission's. Apache is good. Hobbit installs on both machines are hobbit-4.2.0-1. hobbitgraph.cfg and hobbitserver.cfg are copies from a working machine (hobbitserver.cfg modified to the new name/ip address only). There are no errors in /var/log/hobbit/...

The only notable thing different (other than FC8) is that the rrd with FC8 yum install is:

rrdtool-devel-1.3-0.1.beta1.fc8 rrdtool-1.3-0.1.beta1.fc8 rrdtool-perl-1.3-0.1.beta1.fc8

Has anyone experienced that same? or am I just tired and missing something stupid.

Limited information for now - I will go sleep...

You might want to look into CentOS. Coming from Fedora you should be extremely familiar. I have used CentOS for quite a while and found minimal compatibility issues. I do use a few third party repo's, too.

As long as we're talking $DISTRO, I might add that both opensuse and sles work well for my hobbit servers. I have to fix a couple of blatant redhat-isms after installing the rpm package, but that done, everything has been working wonderfully.

I have no experience in Suse what so ever so forgive my ignorance here.

You said you have to fix blatant redhat-isms - is this on Suse/FC/CentOS? What purpose is this package?

This is on suse (both sles and opensuse) - centos is an rhel knockoff so there should be no problem there, and fedora is a close relative.

Out of curiosity, does Suse use RPMs?

Suse uses rpms, but the filesystem layout is not identical to redhat.

So, when you compile and install a source rpm made specifically for redhat on a suse system, there can be a few things out of whack. I had to move some files around, and add symlinks to create rc files for start/stop of hobbit.

But, once that is done, it all seems to run beautifully.

Anyone know when the next release of bbwin is out? The mailing lists for bbwin are pretty static.

Thanks, Padraig

There is a bbwin client that is supported by Hobbit. You can get around the "central mode" thing by running an external script to download the bbwin.cfg file at regular intervals.

Any plans for hobbit to support the "bbwin" client? It obviously currently doesn't support it, at least not in the "central" mode.
